Ray Bradbury is Dead
Which reminds me how much I liked Fahrenheit 451 when I read it in grade school. It was a bit much for me to process, actually. I might have to re-read it. It was a pleasure to burn. It was a special pleasure to see things eaten, to see things blackened and changed. With the brass… Read More Ray Bradbury is Dead
