It's not his best, but it's still a solid work. If any of his books should be burned it's Dandelion Wine

You shut your fucking mouth about Dandelion Wine. That book was seminal to my childhood.

okay okay, it's actually pretty good. I really liked the spooky parts and the sad parts, it was just a bit too saccharine for me at times. but hey, that's Bradbury

>> No.4509648

There's no way Bradbury consented to this edition. In all the extra interviews and shit in the edition I have, Bradbury is a massive douchebag about how much censors are assholes and editors are scum for wanting him to change words. He wouldn't actually want his precious book burned, ever, because that goes against his 2deep4u theme.

The problem is if I owned that I really would burn it at some point just to do it once.

Maybe that's the whole idea: get people to buy two copies, one for burning and one for novelty.

actually, I just looked it up, I was thinking of the original collected edition from the 60s, this one was a concept design by a girl named Elizabeth Perez. So not that much money though. But her blog said
>I've been bombarded with hundreds of kind emails asking where the book can be purchased (it's not for sale because it's a concept design).

So I suppose its actually even more out of reach
