Illustrated Man

From AudioFile This is one of the classics from the golden age of sci-fi--sixteen tales of horror and terror in the tattoos on an "illustrated" man's body. The tales are from a different age, and nuclear war and racism are not as horrifying to us as they were to the liberal intelligentsia of the 1950's. Nonetheless, the tales do hold up. Production values are high, and narrator William Roberts gives each of the characters a different and distinctive voice in a fully voiced performance. His emotions create an insidious chill of terror. This is a good addition to collections. E.F. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
