The Martian Chronicles is a science fiction fix-up novel, published in 1950, by American writer Ray Bradbury that chronicles the exploration and settlement of Mars, the home of indigenous Martians, by Americans leaving a troubled Earth that is eventually devastated by nuclear war.
I think UK edition title The Silver Locusts is more fitting to this book. I got very angry after each story in this book since it reflects true face of humanity, that will destroy any new world it discovers, bringing all problems and prejudices of Earth.
