2.0

I got this book for the story "The Veldt" because it was recommended as a great short sci-fi story. Didn't do much for me. It was a story of a house in the future that would do everything for you: cook your meals, entertain you, and raise your children. Of course with a house like that you would have evil, selfish children who are homicidal, right? This story was trite and superficial. Perhaps at the time it was written it was mind shattering, but not anymore. Not worth the time.
