The Bradbury Chronicles is a celebration of the life and work of science-fiction master Ray Bradbury. It is also an ode to the spoken word, an exploration of the art and joy of storytelling. Bradbury's prose has a poetry and musicality that just begs to be read out loud, so that's what I will be doing. Stick me in your ears (if that's not too weird, it is isn't it??) and enjoy the flow of Bradbury's words.

This month's episode is a return to science-fiction with a daring space mission to harness the power of the sun. It is a beautiful story full of classical allusion and romantic poetry.

For April's episode it felt appropriate to cover The April Witch. And sometime in May or June I have something special planned, so stay tuned to find out more.
