  • A Memory of Murder (1984) is a collection of fifteen mystery short stories by American writer Ray Bradbury. They were originally published from 1944 to 1948 in pulp magazines owned by Popular Publications, Inc. that specialized in detective and crime fiction. Bradbury tried his hand in the genre but found the results unsatisfactory. He referred to the stories as "the walking wounded" in his introduction to A Memory of Murder. Although Bradbury would acquire the reprint rights to "The Small Assassin" and "Wake for the Living" (retitled "The Coffin") for his first collection, Dark Carnival, Popular Publications held onto the reprint rights for the remaining stories after Bradbury became a successful author in the 1950s, and none of those thirteen appeared in collections of Bradbury stories over the years. When Bradbury learned that they would be published in a collection in the 1980s, he offered to write an introduction, and to add the two stories he owned, under the agreement that the book would appear in paperback only, and that no subsequent editions would be published after the first edition sold out. Bradbury returned to the mystery genre in 1985 with the publication of his novel Death Is a Lonely Business, and its two sequels, A Graveyard for Lunatics and Let's All Kill Constance. (en)

  • Omicidi di annata di Ray Bradbury è una raccolta di quindici racconti pubblicata negli Stati Uniti nel 1984, originariamente i racconti erano stati pubblicati tra il 1944 e il 1948 su riviste pulp della che era specializzata in gialli e polizieschi. Bradbury si cimenta in questi generi, ma come egli stesso riferisce nell'introduzione della raccolta le storie sono "dei feriti in grado di camminare". Sebbene Bradbury volle acquisire i diritti di ristampa su Il piccolo assassino e Veglia al vivo per la sua prima raccolta di racconti ( del 1947), la Popular Publications trattenne quelli delle storie rimanenti dopo che Bradbury negli anni cinquanta divenne un autore di successo, e nessuna delle restanti tredici storie apparve sulle raccolte di Bradbury.Quando negli anni ottanta Bradbury venne a sapere che le sue storie sarebbero state pubblicate in una raccolta, si offrì di scrivere l'introduzione e di aggiungere le due storie che possedeva, con l'accordo che sarebbero state pubblicate in edizione economica e che nessuna successiva edizione sarebbe stata pubblicata fino a che la prima non fosse stata esaurita.
