"Written in the age of the atom, When America and Europe optimistically viewed the discovery of life on Mars as inevitable, Bradbury's closely interwoven tales of a brutal, stark and unforgiving Martian landscape are both astonishing and insightful. 'The Martian chronicles' tells the story of humanity's repeated attempts to colonize the red planet. The first men were few. Most succombed to a disease called the Great Loneliness when they saw their home planet dwindle to the size of a fist. Those few who survived found no welcome on Mars. But more rockets arrived from Earth, and more. People brought their old prejudices with them - and their desires and fantasies and tainted dreams." [Source : 4e de couv.].
