Ray Bradbury dead 91.

I don't know about you, but the very first book report I wrote in public school was on Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451--it set off my lifelong interest in Utopian/Dystopian literature (I teach a course on that very subject, now and then).

It also spurred my interest in Sci-fi literature. Pretty much self-educated in the public library, he had a long and illustrious career, may he RIP in other lands and realms!

He was great. Loved, "There Will Come Soft Rains". May he rest in peace.

I really liked "Something Wicked This Way Comes". A great writer is gone. Rest In Peace Mr. Bradbury.

I think 451 was one of the first books that school made me read that I actually read completely! RIP
