It's very different, and it bends the normal thought patterns of people =)

I actually liked The Illustrated Man more than this. Since this is longer, there are more stories, and it's a lot less consistent than Illustrated Man. The stories in this collection are also more cerebral and "normal" than Illustrated Man, which had thoroughly fantastic elements in them. However, this does have some of Bradbury's greatest stories. I was particularly blown away by the "Einar" stories, "Uncle Einar" and "Homecoming". The ending to "The Emissary" also gave me a good chill. I recommend this.

El país de Octubre. El primer libro de Bradbury que cayó en mis manos, con las páginas oscurecidas por el tiempo y sin la tapa. Desde que mis ojos se posaron en las pequeñas letras impresas en ese libro Bradbury capturo toda mi atención. La manera en que desarrollaba sus historias, las descripciones, los desenlaces, todo de sus cuentos era perfecto y nuevo para mí. El cuento que más recuerdo de ese libro es el de una pareja que sale de vacaciones hacia México. Cuando me regalaron el libro no tenía pensado leerlo. Más bien leerlo sí pero nunca imagine que quedaría atrapada de esa manera a la prosa de Bradbury.

I'm not liking the sexest tones of this book. The women are sappy and weak and subservient.

I first read this collection back in high school, and it started me on the rest of Bradbury. After rereading it, I can safely say it still remains at the top of my favorites list!

Probably Bradbury's best collection of independent short stories.

The first Bradbury collection I read. The Emissary still gives me chills.
