Best of the best??
I am currently working on a mutli genre project and am being asked to read some of Ray Bradbury's books. I know he has written F451(read it), but I was wonderign if Dandelion Wine has as much 'strangeness' as F451, or are there any other great books you recommend...? (also short stories?) Thank you

From a previous request on a similar topic, comes the response below. Then make your own choices. All of RB's works are fantastic in different ways. It may take time to develop a feel for his style and idiosyncrocies, but once recognized --- you're hooked!

RE: Set aside an hour or so and dig in here:

the book of stories entitled "Medicine for Melancholy" is fabulous. I could not even choose a favorite from among them; they are each strong on their own....but I think of the whole book with enthusiasm and like to read it straight through.
