About this listen

Ray Bradbury’s Morgue Ship is a haunting mid-20th-century science fiction short story that confronts the true cost of war far from the battlefield. Set amid an endless interstellar conflict, the narrative follows Sam Burnett, a weary coroner aboard the morgue ship Constellation, whose grim task is to retrieve and preserve the bodies of fallen soldiers drifting through space. As moral duty collides with personal conscience, Burnett is forced to reckon with the futility of violence, the machinery of war, and the humanity lost in its wake.

Stark, introspective, and deeply emotional, Morgue Ship is a powerful meditation on mortality, responsibility, and survival, showcasing Bradbury’s mastery of human-centered science fiction.
