Comments to the story “No Particular Night or Morning”

This one has impressed me very much. One of the few stories of Ray Bradbury which tells not about
relationship, but about inner feelings. This one told me more about existentialism than Sartre's
"Nausea". Scary, amazing, wonderful.

Please let us learn the correct spelling of losing, as it should be, rather than loosing! How
this eror detracts from such high minded conceptual analysis of Bradbury.

Hitchcock is completely the character of Descartes in space. I love that the first bit of
Meditations on First Philosophy was put to a story format. No one seems to understand the
anti-empiricism here, which to me is tragic. I've come across reviews saying that it was a bad
character analysis or a bad story, but it was never meant to be either. It is a way to put the
Cartesian theory of knowledge into a science fiction setting so that it's more accessible to
readers than an archaic Frenchman speaking in a holier than thou tone. Great story.
