Maybe “The Veldt” just hogged those neurons allocated to Bradbury. “Zero Hour” has a very similar ending to “The Veldt” which is also in The Illustrated Man, and that’s a story I always remember.
So, why didn’t I remember reading it this morning? It’s a wonderful story. And I read it when I read The Great SF Stories 9 (1947). I might have read it again when I bought The Illustrated Man on audio.
#ZERO HOUR RAY BRADBURY MOVIE#
I read The Illustrated Man in 1969 when the movie version came out. I love having a library that’s always with me.īut when I checked I realized I’ve read it at least two times before. That worked out well since I decided to read “Zero Hour” at 5:30am this morning while I was still in my sleeping chair.
I thought as I was reading “Zero Hour” this morning, “Hey, here’s a Bradbury story I haven’t read before!” Yesterday, I bought Bradbury Stories: 100 of His Most Celebrated Tales for $1.99 for the Kindle edition so I’d have his stories on my phone. The most famous place to read it is in Bradbury’s classic, The Illustrated Man. “Zero Hour” was first published in Planet Stories (Fall 1947). Stories are discussed on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Hartwell (1989), an anthology my short story club is group reading. “ Zero Hour” by Ray Bradbury is story #30 of 52 from The World Treasury of Science Fiction edited by David G.
