Another book finished

26. I Sing the Body Electric - Ray Bradbury [807/1520 53.09%]

"I Sing the Body Electric" is a collection of eighteen short stories by Ray Bradbury published around 1969 (there is a new version of this book which contains additional and newer stories).  I've always enjoyed his short stories - some favorites from this volume are "Any Friend of Nicholas Nickleby's Is a Friend of Mine", "The Terrible Conflagration up at the Place" and "The Man in the Rorschach Shirt".

Oh, great. Now I have the song, I Sing the Body Electric (from Fame) in my head...

Lucky you - I hear my 8th grade chorus singing it. (It was the chorus' 2nd encore every year.)

"And I look back on Venus (look back on Venus), look back on Mars..."
