Pillar of Fire

Pillar of Fire - Ray Bradbury - William Lantry awakes hundreds of years in the future after having died in 1933. He awakes with a burning rage towards mankind and as he learns more about this futuristic place, it only grows. He discovers that the graveyards of old have been destroyed and he was in one of the last ones. He's unsure of why he has been brought back to life but he escapes being sent to the incinerator as is done with so many other humans. Every town has a large incinerator where people dead or about to die are taken to to be cremated. There appears no sadness in this but that this is merely part of the process. This world no longer lies or commits violence. Ceremonies and funerals are a thing of the past. Enraged by this new world, William sets to killing people and destroying the incinerators.
