REMEMBRANCE Selected Correspondence of Ray Bradbury

Over his stellar 75-year career, genre-bending dark fantasy novelist/playwright Ray Bradbury corresponded with just about everyone from science fiction grandmasters to U.S. presidents to Hollywood directors. Capturing Bradbury's easy sincerity, abundant enthusiasm, and mid-century Midwestern drawl, Byron Wagner leads a fine group of voice talents in narrating Bradbury's letters and the illuminating responses he received from Arthur C. Clarke, Graham Greene, Frederico Fellini, and others. Bradbury discusses his family, fortune, THE MARTIAN CHRONICLES, MOBY-DICK, blacklisting, the Space Age, world literature, and, most importantly, his work. He loved his chosen profession, and listening to his comments on the process and discipline of the craft is an education in itself. Entertaining, vibrant, and edifying. The world, words, and thoughts of a true American treasure. B.P. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2023]
