This is an utter tour de force, ahead of its time in so many ways, dark and insightful and faintly hopeful. The short stories are all individually fantastic, some more memorable than others, with There Will Come Soft Rains, of course, overshadowing everything else. Honestly, I'd be tempted to give this collection five stars just for that story. It's fantastic in so many more ways that I can describe, and Bradbury was a genuine visionary. Can't recommend enough.
