A collection of short stories about terraforming Mars. It takes about twenty seven years. That's also how long it took me to finish reading this book. My favorite chapter was a love letter to Edgar Allen Poe. It helped me to realize that both Bradbury and Poe's stories usually have a sense of doom and foreboding.
