Extract from one of Ray Bradbury's most compelling stories, ‘Night Call Collect’, read by Nathan Osgood.

The story was originally published under the title ‘I, Mars’ in 1949. In it, Emil Barton, an engineer on Mars who is the last human there, has spent his youth wiring up the abandoned cities with telephone lines and recording messages to his older self. The messages were designed to trigger and play automatically, many years later. Now very old, Emil seems to have forgotten about them. But then, one day, the phone rings.
