In an ingenious framework to open and close the book, Bradbury presents himself as a nameless narrator who meets the Illustrated Man--a wanderer whose entire body is a living canvas of exotic tattoos. What's even more remarkable, and increasingly disturbing, is that the illustrations are themselves magically alive, and each proceeds to unfold its own story, such as \"The Veldt,\" wherein rowdy children take a game of virtual reality way over the edge. Or \"Kaleidoscope,\" a heartbreaking portrait of stranded astronauts about to reenter our atmosphere--without the benefit of a spaceship. Or \"Zero Hour,\" in which invading aliens have discovered a most logical ally--our own children. Even though most were written in the 1940s and 1950s, these 18 classic stories will be just as chillingly effective 50 years from now. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003e--Stanley Wiater\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eContents:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· Prologue: The Illustrated Man · ss *\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Veldt [“The World the Children Made”] · ss The Saturday Evening Post Sep 23 ’50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· Kaleidoscope · ss Thrilling Wonder Stories Oct ’49\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Other Foot · ss New Story Magazine Mar ’51\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Highway [as by Leonard Spalding] · ss Copy Spr ’50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Man · ss Thrilling Wonder Stories Feb ’49\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Long Rain [“Death-by-Rain”] · ss Planet Stories Sum ’50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Rocket Man · ss Maclean’s Mar 1 ’51\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Fire Balloons [“‘In This Sign...’”] · ss Imagination Apr ’51\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Last Night of the World · ss Esquire Feb ’51\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Exiles [“The Mad Wizards of Mars”] · ss Maclean’s Sep 15 ’49; F\u0026amp;SF Win ’50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· No Particular Night or Morning · ss *\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Fox and the Forest [“To the Future”] · ss Colliers May 13 ’50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Visitor · ss Startling Stories Nov ’48\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· The Concrete Mixer · ss Thrilling Wonder Stories Apr ’49\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e· Marionettes, Inc.
