A two-volume set. "This edition is limited to 500 unsigned trade hardcovers, 200 slipcased hardcovers signed by Ray Bradbury and one hundred special deluxe [slipcased] sets signed by Ray Bradbury and Caitlin Kiernan." This reprints both versions of the 1959 collection, which was published in the US as A Medicine for Melancholy and in the UK as The Day It Rained Forever. Each collection contains the same contents, except for four stories each, which are not duplicated in the other collection. The edition of A Medicine for Melancholy is not available separately. (The Day It Rained Forever is available separately.)
Chris Roberts' cover for A Medicine for Melancholy is reproduced here. For Tomislav Tikulin's cover for The Day It Rained Forever go here. OCLC lists only Tikulin as cover artist. Its content listing is missing 4 stories from the anthologies above: "A Medicine for Melancholy", "All Summer in a Day", "The First Night of Lent", and "The Great Collision of Monday Last"; we tentatively include them here, but a verifier should check those particular stories.
