I also love sci fi that explores the human condition. However my first foray into Bradbury (The Martian Chronicles) left me a bit cold. Are there other works you'd recommend?
Short stories are, IMO, where he really shines. The Illustrated Man is a good collection to start with, as is The Golden Apples of the Sun. But read them slowly, and (this may be a controversial statement) in a physical paper book.
I'll bear it in mind, thanks. Fwiw The Martian Chronicles are effectively a bunch of short stories and I did read it in paperback. But come to think of it I read Fahrenheit 451 many years ago and distantly remember enjoying it.
