Fantastic edging is often just a background for the development of purely human dramas.Īnother leading theme of the author is dehumanization of society in the era of the global invasion of "machines." The theme of "machine" is reflected in almost every work of the writer, including the novel "Dandelion Wine" in fairy-tale and parable perception.Ī person in the world of Ray Bradbury is not confronted so much with the nature that spawned him or her, but with his or her own alienated Other.
The hero of Bradbury’s works is a thinking, reflexive, contradictory and acting hero.
Ray Bradbury uses the means of science fiction to expose the "rational being" to unexpected and even paradoxical moral examinations, and darkness and light, war and peace, good and evil, enslavement and liberation are intertwined in his novels. A person is always doomed to choose either Evil or Good, or a self-limiting "no", or a self-affirming "yes". The Main Themes of the Writer's Workįrom the very first story, Bradbury puts the problem of human existence at the forefront of his work, which is initially dramatic. You can order a review of any book and not only on. And "Dandelion Wine" is not an exception. Perhaps, that is why his works are still not only interesting, but also incredibly relevant. In his fictional, but such real and living worlds, the author can bring any idea to absurdity, show it from the other side, identify and openly show vices. His works are filled with deep meaning, they are sharply social, and sometimes even border on satire. Ray Bradbury is not just a science fiction writer.
