Does the story have something to do with libarys, books, fires? Any or all? I remember an exert from an exam had a title similar to that.

WARNING! INCREDIBLY LAME JOKE AHEAD!

I preferred the sequel, Fahrenheit 452.

I thought this was gonna be about the photographer/dadaist/artist.



Ray Bradbury is super cool, though. Me parents were cool enough to buy me the Gauntlet Press release of his book "Dark Carnival" which is beautiful. As of right now http://www.gauntletpress.com has a bunch of other cool Bradbury releases. Expensive, but special. Just like ... nevermind, i being nice these days.

...stupid backslash...

I had to read "There Will Come Soft Rains" for an English class once. That is an excellent story.
