Farewell Summer - Ray Bradbury - Bog

af Ray Bradbury
Farewell Summer af Ray Bradbury
Bag om Farewell Summer

In the deceiving warmth of earliest October, civil war has come to Green Town, Illinois, an age-old conflict pitting the young against the elderly for control of the clock that ticks their lives ever forward. The graying forces of school board despot Mr. Calvin C. Quartermain have declared total war on thirteen-year-old Douglas Spaulding and his downy-cheeked cohorts. The boys, in turn, plan and execute daring campaigns, matching old Quartermain's experience and cunning with their youthful enthusiasm and devil-may-care determination to hold on forever to childhood's summer. Yet time must ultimately be the victor, as life waits in ambush to assail young Spaulding with its powerful mysteries?the irresistible ascent of manhood, the sweet surrender of a first kiss . . .

Ray Bradbury

Ray Douglas Bradbury, (Ray Bradbury), er født d. 22 august, 1920, Waukegan, Illinois, USA. Den amerikanske science-fiction forfatter er bedst kendt for hans yderst fantasifulde ‘short stories’, og novelle som blander en bestemt poetisk stil, nostalgi for barndommen og social kriticisme. Hans værker består af komplekse og vidunderlige, oftest uroligende lagre af menneskets eksistens. Derudover består de også af det ubegrænsede univers, og dets planet kaldet Jorden.Gennem hans bidrag til den litterære verden, og takket være menneskets uendelige fantasi, gjorde det ham til en af tidernes bedste forfattere. Hans fortæller-egenskab, gjorde ham unik, og er anset som en mester af den kreative frihed, space-age visionary og beskytter af det menneskelige hjerte. Han er anerkendt af millioner af mennesker gennem generationer i vor tid. Find f. eks Ray Bradburys bedste værk ‘Fahrenheit 451’ her.Foto af Evening Standard/Getty
