literary critics?

I need help with a research paper. I need to use three literary essays. I really admire Bradbury's work and wanted to use one of his books and write about it.
Problem is, I can't find any essays. If anyone has any suggestions (preferrably essays that are published in books), it would be so helpful. Thanks.

He has at least two books of essays, Zen in the Art of Writing and Yestermorrow. Another is due out next year.

Some critical works on Bradbury have been listed on these boards, including links to lists of such works on Philnic's site. Look around.

The question has been answered before here, but is worth repeating for newcomers to the board. The following lists some of the most significant critical studies of Ray's work: RAY BRADBURY, by George Slusser (Borgo Press, 1977); RAY BRADBURY, edited by Joseph D. Olander and Martin H. Greenberg (Taplinger, 1980); RAY BRADBURY AND THE POETICS OF REVERIE, by William F. Touponce (UMI Research Press, 1984); RAY BRADBURY, by David Mogen (Twayne, 1986); RAY BRADBURY, by William F. Touponce (Starmont, 1989); RAY BRADBURY: A CRITICAL COMPANION, by Robin Anne Reid (Greenwood, 2000); RAY BRADBURY: MODERN CRITICAL VIEWS, edited by Harold Bloom (Chelsea House, 2001); FAHRENHEIT 451: MODERN CRITICAL INTERPRETATIONS, edited by Harold Bloom (Chelsea House, 2001); and RAY BRADBURY: THE LIFE OF FICTION, by Jonathan R. Eller and William F. Touponce (Kent State University Press, 2004).
