Description: The Illustrated Man (Signed first edition) Author: Bradbury, Ray Title: The Illustrated Man (Signed first edition) Publication: Garden City, New York: Doubleday & Company, Inc., 1951 Edition: First edition Description: A Near Fine copy of the book with the lower corners bumped and a slight bend in the lower corner of the text block. In a Very Good+ dust jacket with the spine gently faded, as usual, and a couple short tears (no loss). Completely unrestored and generally in attractive condition. Signed by the author on the title page. A collection of short stories by one of Science Fiction's strongest voices. In Bradbury's classic style, flawed and deeply human characters struggle against forces exponentially larger than themselves: from a story of the atomic war seen from the Mexican-American border to a man whose living and moving tattoos predict tragedy. Poignant at the time of its publication, the book has maintained its prophetic power. "Readers today will find in The Illustrated Man a fresh perspective that illuminates global issues like artificial intelligence and climate change" (JSTOR Daily). Some stories would serve as the basis for the 1969 film adaptation of the same name. Near Fine in Very Good + dust jacket.
