I love short stories because of the limits and constraints. The author has to stretch the methods of telling the story so that it will fit, but not leave the reading lacking in terms of pace, narrative, characters etc. Plus, short stories are usually weird af, which I love. Bradbury does a fantastic job—I really enjoyed this collection.
Disappointing... thought this short story collection would be as epic as The Illustrated Man, but I guess nothing is as epic as The Illustrated Man...

How could I rate with any other than 5 stars a book containing the horrifying tale of a man that discovers that deep inside him lives a very spooky skeleton? Truly a masterpiece.

Al ser una recopilación de cuentos me parece que hay para todos los gustos.
Me hicieron ponerme en el mood de la llegada del otoño.

It is unusual for me to enjoy every story in an anthology. Bradbury is an impressive teller of tales.
