Man Ray



Man Ray
Ray Bradbury, The Illistrated man or the Martian Chronicals?

I recently read two of Ray Bradbury stories, The Martian Chronicles and The Illistrated Man. I read a story in which many long dead poets are together and doing something which i dont recall, just that there were many poets. What was the name of this short story and was it in the Martian Chronicals or the Illistrated man?

It was in “The Illustrated Man,” and it was called “The Exiles.”

“The Exiles” — Numerous works of literature are banned and burned on Earth. The fictional characters of these books are portrayed as real-life entities who live in a refuge on Mars. However, they are vulnerable, as when all the books on a character are destroyed, the character itself vanishes permanently. When the group of characters learn that some people are coming for them, they stage a counterattack, but are foiled by the astronauts who burn the last remaining books from Earth, unknowingly annihilating the entire colony.
