"The Veldt" is a chilling look at what happens in a mechanized house where a holographic nursery begins to exert a mysterious power over its inhabitants.
Ray Bradbury's mastering of the subtle message, the sense of the surreal, and a growing sense of horror are well shown in this collection. His prose is spare and his dialogue is simple, but each story packs a punch. This edition is also very well bound, with a pleasant hard cover and thick, smooth paper. And as an extra bonus, there are study guides for each of the three stories, and a biography of the author at the end
For those new to Bradbury, this is a good introduction with some of his best material.
