PS Publishing in the U.K. has announced that its new Ray Bradbury book, GREENTOWN TINSELTOWN, is available for pre-order:

"GREENTOWN TINSELTOWN - now available for pre-order

This slim volume—slim only in actual size, however, for it is truly brimming with ideas and heart—is the fourteenth Bradbury title published by PS (thirteen by PS alone and one—The Martian Chronicles—in collaboration with Subterranean Press).

Inside these pages the reader will be gloriously transported to an American Midwest that may for the most part have disappeared . . . but just close one eye and wait, for it’s never all that far away. There is a warmth in these vignettes and poems, partials and notes that you would be hard-put to find in almost any other author’s work and, whilst it may be a lasting testament to Bradbury’s lifetime of achievements, it is worth remembering that without the dogged determination of Donn Albright, the author’s longstanding friend, companion and chronicler, the material here may never have seen the light of day.

You are about to embark on a journey from which you may never want to return. Bon voyage!"
