Bradbury story about Thomas Wolfe
 Login/Join

In the late 50s, I'm pretty sure, I read a Bradbury story in which, for reasons that escape me now, a time machine was used to snatch Thomas Wolfe (the 1930s writer, not the current one) into the future, so that he could travel around the solar system and chronicle his trip as only Wolfe could (I guess people in the future lacked the requisite vision or writing skills....). Can anyone identify this story for me? Thanks....

"Forever and the Earth," from "Long After Midnight." Wonderful story which introduced me to Thomas Wolfe and moved his work way up on my to-read list!

Many thanks! I kinda thought that that was the one, given the Wolfian title, but it's nice to be sure -- I'll have to track it down, it must be 48 or 49 years since I read it. Hard to believe that Bradbury is still alive....

Best,

Hayford
