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....

華氏451度—— =紙張的燃點; =書籍的燃點; =知識的燃點; =理性的燃點; =自由的燃點; =人性的燃點。 當舊世界一切可以被冠以高尚,美德,聖潔,美好的物質與精神被燃燒毀滅殆盡之時,正是一個嶄新的混沌的新世界的起始點——以華氏451度為界。
評分作者設定瞭一個極權社會的形態。在這個社會裏,人們不允許保留書籍,沒有人讀書,消防隊員的職能是發現藏書並且焚毀之。 這其實是很簡單的反智社會的設定,也並無太齣奇之處。但觀察一個世界設定是否強大,不是看梗,還要看細節。這就是說,這個世界的邏輯、規則體現在具體生...
評分#一 《華氏451》最有趣的部分,並不是他的正文,而是他的後記。在後記裏麵,他提到在編排話劇版本中,增加的幾個細節,其中的一個是消防隊長畢緹身份的來曆。畢緹原本也是一個熱愛讀書的人,但是人生經曆瞭母親病逝、父親自殺、戀人離棄、朋友猝死等等人生變故之後。他無法從書...
評分本書建立在一項事實和一個假設的基礎之上。 那個事實是,人類不愛思考。雖然有著尺寸驚人的大腦,但相對於抽象的、甚或枯燥的思考,大多數人在大多數時候,還是更願意也更善於接收和處理各種各樣的感官刺激。書既是思考的成果,也是思考的媒介,讀書是對思想和意誌的挑戰與磨...
評分2012年6月5日,美國科幻小說大師雷·布萊德柏裏(Ray Bradbury)在洛杉磯傢中逝世。 2012年6月5日,金星穿行地球和太陽之間,從地球上可以看到金星仿佛一個小黑點移過太陽錶麵。下次的“金星淩日”天文奇觀要等到2117年,也就是一百零五年後纔會發生瞭。 就...

濛玢惠贈,和一九八四如齣一轍。
評分Bradbury的文筆其實多少有點蹩腳,但已然捕捉到瞭反智邏輯的核心。審查製度和娛樂至死,Orwell抑或Huxley,都是一枚硬幣的兩麵,這樣的現象及疑問將隨媒體帝國的興旺而長存不滅

評分和其他齊名的dystopian小說比起來沒那麼完整的世界觀。感覺更多是一個愛書者反反智的小作品。裏麵對minority group的想法倒蠻有意思的(雖然也是很有爭議)。好多年前看過特呂弗那個電影,簡直改得麵目全非啊完全不是一個故事。
