Klappentext zu „A Pleasure to Burn “
Ray Bradbury's novel Fahrenheit 451 is an enduring masterwork of twentieth-century American literature?a chilling vision of a dystopian future built on the foundations of ignorance, censorship, and brutal repression. The origins and evolution of Bradbury's darkly magnificent tale are explored in A Pleasure to Burn, a collection of sixteen selected shorter works that prefigure the grand master's landmark novel. Classic, thematically interrelated stories alongside many crucial lesser-known ones?including, at the collection's heart, the novellas ?Long After Midnight? and ?The Fireman??A Pleasure to Burn is an indispensable companion to the most powerful work of America's preeminent storyteller, a wondrous confirmation of the inimitable Bradbury's brilliance, magic . . . and fire.
