Born on this day in 1920,Bradbury would be 100 !He passed away in 2012 & cut a large swath thru the literary landscape.Horror , Science Fiction , Mystery , Screenwriter. Fahrenheit 451 written in 1953 will always be a warning to those who censor or try to control knowledge & information.This book, I haven‘t read yet , is a novel ,yet grounded in some real experiences Ray had as a young man trying to write a screenplay of Moby Dick for John Huston.

"I looked out from the deck of the Dún Laoghaire ferry and saw Ireland.

The land was green.

Not just one ordinary sort of green, but every shade and variation. Even the shadows were green, and the light that played on the Dún Laoghaire wharf and on the faces of the customs inspectors. Down into the green I stepped, an American young man, just beyond thirty, suffering two sorts of depression, lugging a typewriter and little else."
