Golden Apples of the Sun

Golden Apples of the Sun
Ray Douglas Bradbury

One of Ray Bradbury’s classic short story collections, available for the first time in ebook.

This collection contains thirty-two of Ray Bradbury’s most famous tales – prime examples of the poignant and mysterious poetry which Bradbury uniquely uncovers in the depths of the human soul.

From a lonely coastal lighthouse to a sixty-million-year-old safari, from the pouring rain of Venus to the ominous silence of a murder scene, Ray Bradbury is our sure-handed guide not only to surprising and outrageous manifestations of the future, but also to the wonders of the present that we could never have imagined on our own.
