Publisher's Summary

"He was a riot of rockets and fountains and people, in such intricate detail and color that you could hear the voices murmuring, small and muted, from the crowds that inhabited his body."

A hiker meets a man whose upper body is covered with illustrations so vivid and beautiful that they literally come to life. One by one, the images quiver with fantastic tales guaranteed to stir your imagination. The illustrations tell tales of a future where space travel is commonplace and technology has a tendency to turn sinister. Full of realistic details and dialogue, the stories make what was unthinkable believable, blurring the fine line between reality and fantasy. When the hiker's own face appears on the illustrated man's body, the image is so terrifying he can't bear to stay and hear its tale.

Ray Bradbury, one of the world's best-known science-fiction and fantasy writers, did much to popularize the genre. He was among the first to combine science-fiction concepts with literary style. With Paul Hecht's smooth, rich voice and polished dramatic talents, listeners can savor every imaginative detail of one of the best-loved works from this legendary writer.
