New Podcast Episode: Chronological Bradbury 1944 (part 2)

Time for another podcast episode - another in my "Chronological Bradbury" strand, where I work through Ray Bradbury's stories in the order they were published.

This time, we continue with the year 1944, which sees Ray publishing a string of crime stories alongside the more familiar fantasy and science fiction tales.

As you will recall from last time, there are too many stories from 1944 for me to cover in a single episode, so this is the second of three episodes for 1944.

Here are the stories in this episode, with links to the original magazine appearances where they exist. (Some of this episode's stories are from rare magazines which have never appeared as online scans, so the only way you can read them is to seek them out in books! In the episode, I tell you which books the stories can be found in.)

  1. Killer Come Back to Me
  2. The Long Night
  3. Yesterday I Lived
  4. The Trunk Lady
  5. Bang! You're Dead!
  6. And Then - The Silence

 

As always, you can grab the episode using your podcast app of choice, or find it using any of the platforms listed at the bottom of this page - or play it right here. Enjoy!

New Podcast Episode: Chronological Bradbury 1944 (part 1)

Time for another podcast episode - and it's another in my "Chronological Bradbury" strand, where I work through Ray Bradbury's stories in the order they were published.

This time, we reach the year 1944, which sees Ray publishing "The Lake" - which he always said was the first "good" story that he ever wrote. It's also the year of "I, Rocket", the story which nabbed him a posthumous Retro Hugo Award for best short story of 1944.

There are too many stories from 1944 for me to cover in a single episode, so you can expect THREE episodes for the year in total. Here are the stories in this episode, with links to the original magazine appearances of all of them:

  1. The Sea Shell
  2. Reunion
  3. The Monster Maker
  4. I, Rocket
  5. The Lake
  6. Morgue Ship
  7. There Was An Old Woman
