Ray Bradbury

On Wednesday, Ray Bradbury died. Others have said wonderful things in his memory, much better than I could.

Fahrenheit 451 is one of my favourite books. I can quote it by heart, almost, and it's one of those books that speak to my soul, as a lifelong avid reader and librarian. It was written in a library.

So which book would you be, if you ever made it out of the mindnumbing city into the wilderness? I would be Carl Sagan's The Demon-Haunted World, or if I had to be a fiction book, I would be Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird.
