Ray Bradbury was one of the first science fiction writers to
achieve both popular success and critical acclaim. His books have
not only sold millions of copies, but have been accepted as serious
literature in an age when science fiction is still burdened by the
stigma of being "pulp literature." This book, a revised and
expanded Second Edition of the 1990 chapbook, examines the Ray
Bradbury phenomenon through a structuralist reading of five stories
from his major collection, The Illustrated Man, together with the
narrative framework (the prologue and epilogue), which ties the
stories together to form a complete work. The analysis will show
some of Bradbury's major literary themes, and highlight the
narrative techniques used in his short stories. A first-rate
examination of one of science fiction's seminal authors.
