Published 2008 Listed as one of BOOKGASM S BEST OF 2008 Long-talked about by Bradbury enthusiasts, MASKS was to be Ray Bradbury s second novel (he considers THE MARTIAN CHRONICLES his first novel). In the late-forties Bradbury applied for a Guggenheim grant and submitted an early version of MASKS . While he didn t get the grant, Bradbury continued to tinker with it until 1952 or 1953. Editor Donn Albright has assembled fragments into a cohesive story so the reader can compare Bradbury s first draft with later thoughts on the proposed novel.
