About this book

"Published in 1947, Bradbury's first story collection heralds the arrival of one of the twentieth century's greatest writers. Each tale is marked with the characteristic genius -- for the unusual and the uncanny, the unexamined and the unexplained -- that would define his later works as classics. But beneath each also runs a dark undercurrent of terror that might just pull you under.... Including Bradbury's first sold story and an O. Henry Award-winner handpicked from the slush pile by a young Truman Capote himself, this collection of twenty-seven sinister stories is a must-read for any fan of horror, spinning stardust and cobwebs in its wondrous wake."--

About Unknown Author

Ray Bradbury is one of those rare individuals whose writing has changed the way people think. His more than five hundred published works -- short stories, novels, plays, screenplays, television scripts, and verse -- exemplify the American imagination at its most creative. Once read, his words are never forgotten. His best-known and most beloved books, *The Martian Chronicles*, *The Illustrated Man*, *Fahrenheit 451* and *Something Wicked This Way Comes*, are masterworks that readers carry with them over a lifetime. His timeless, constant appeal to audiences young and old has proven him to be one of the truly classic authors of the 20th Century -- and the 21st. In recognition of his stature in the world of literature and the impact he has had on so many for so many years, Bradbury was awarded the National Book Foundation's 2000 Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, an the National Medal of Arts in 2004.
