Ray Douglas Bradbury (/ˈbrædˌbɛri/; August 22, 1920 – June 5, 2012) was an American author and screenwriter. He worked in a variety of genres, including fantasy, science fiction, horror, and mystery fiction.
Widely known for his dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451 (1953), and his science-fiction and horror-story collections, The Martian Chronicles (1950), The Illustrated Man (1951), and I Sing the Body Electric (1969), Bradbury was one of the most celebrated 20th- and 21st-century American writers.[2] While most of his best known work is in speculative fiction, he also wrote in other genres, such as the coming-of-age novel Dandelion Wine (1957) and the fictionalized memoir Green Shadows, White Whale (1992).
Recipient of numerous awards, including a 2007 Pulitzer Citation, Bradbury also wrote and consulted on screenplays and television scripts, including Moby Dick and It Came from Outer Space. Many of his works were adapted to comic book, television, and film formats.
Upon his death in 2012, The New York Times called Bradbury "the writer most responsible for bringing modern science fiction into the literary mainstream"
Nowadays firemen start fires. Fireman Guy Montag loves to rush to a fire and watch books burn up. Then he met a seventeen-year old girl who told him of a past when people were not afraid, and a professor who told him of a future where people could think. And Guy Montag knew what he had to do....
故事本身很有创意,语言都是诗一样的,非常漂亮,语言上很赞,不少地方轻灵飞扬 结构和故事上和其他反乌托邦小说比较类似,尤其是和<美丽新世界>有点儿像,都是高科技下,人们浑浑噩噩的看似快乐的生活 没有书籍、没有思考、没有哲学,没有一切让人头疼的东西 而且是扼杀这一切...
评分因为文笔,一切都被原谅。布拉德伯里真是好呀,让蒙塔格出逃,而遗落的“记忆者”遍布城市外围。 隐喻。观城市和与之一河之隔的城郊,如《北京折叠》中在外围观看翻转中的北京。指向城市文明?惊心动魄,遂想起好友言说,和在宿舍的室友用话语沟通,不如直接发微信。火的点燃总...
评分作者设定了一个极权社会的形态。在这个社会里,人们不允许保留书籍,没有人读书,消防队员的职能是发现藏书并且焚毁之。 这其实是很简单的反智社会的设定,也并无太出奇之处。但观察一个世界设定是否强大,不是看梗,还要看细节。这就是说,这个世界的逻辑、规则体现在具体生...
评分虽然叶沙做节目推荐的只是1966年出版的电影版《华氏451》,但是作为一部科幻小说届的经典,我想看原版的小说已经很久了。这部作品的主题和自由、审查还有书都有关系,不仅很有启发,而且看得还挺带劲的。这本书把背景淡化成未知的某个未来的时间点,在那个时候书成了禁品,而消...
评分一个消防队,它的职责并非灭火救灾,而是随时随地焚书。这个奇特的消防队成立于1790年,最初的宗旨是要烧毁北美殖民地内受英格兰影响的书籍,以后蔓延到所有的图书。华氏451度就是烧书时纸的燃点。美国的开国元勋之一本杰明·富兰克林竟然是其第一位消防员。它有一整套从接警、...
Bradbury的文笔其实多少有点蹩脚,但已然捕捉到了反智逻辑的核心。审查制度和娱乐至死,Orwell抑或Huxley,都是一枚硬币的两面,这样的现象及疑问将随媒体帝国的兴旺而长存不灭
评分蒙玢惠贈,和一九八四如出一轍。
评分Too much exposition w scarcely any character development; dialogue often feels scripted and preachy. 除了体系的监控,个人对思想自由的压制也有着不可避的责任。意思是好就是写得太雷。
评分"Do your own bit of saving, and if you drown, at least die knowing you were headed for shore."
评分最棒的反乌托邦小说之一。
