New Podcast Episode: Chronological Bradbury 1943

Bradbury 100 podcast time! And it's another of my "Chronological Bradbury" series, this time covering the year 1943.

This is the year when Ray broke all his previous records, by having no fewer than eleven stories published in professional magazines - in contrast to the mere two published in 1942.

This is also the year that Ray became 23 years old. It's remarkable to me that a 22-year-old could write a story like "The Wind", "The Crowd" or "The Scythe". All three of these classics were published before his 23rd birthday.

To be fair, not every Bradbury story of 1943 is a timeless classic. Some of them are quite pulpy! But all of them are interesting.

In this episode, I cover roughly half of 1943, and I'll cover the remainder of the year in a future episode. The stories I feature this time are:

• The Piper (Thrilling Wonder Stories, February 1943)
• The Wind (Weird Tales, March 1943)
• Gabriel's Horn (co-written with Henry Hasse (Captain Future, Spring 1943))
• Subterfuge (Astonishing Stories, April 1943) 
• The Crowd (Weird Tales, May 1943)
• The Scythe (Weird Tales, July 1943)

 

Here's the episode. Enjoy!
