A Pleasure to Burn: Fahrenheit 451 Stories

Two of the stories in this book are more like novelettes than short stories, I think. Long After Midnight is an early version of Fahrenheit 451. The Fireman is a rewrite of Long After Midnight. The two stories are the same -in some instances the wording is identical- but The Fireman is clearly more mature, more literary. So these are two steps along the way, as Bradbury developed his great style, to his well known masterpiece Fahrenheit 451.
