À propos de cet audio

The Racer is a 1956 short story written by Ib Melchior. The story was first published in the magazine Escapade in October 1956. It presents a dystopian vision in which five race drivers compete in a transcontinental race where the winner is determined by a combination of finishing position and the number of pedestrians they kill, earning points for each casualty. The narrative follows Willie "The Bull" Connors, a racer whose confidence wavers as he becomes increasingly haunted by the lives he takes, ultimately leading to a moral reckoning when confronted by a young woman who challenges his identity as a "racer".

The story served as the basis for two major film adaptations: Death Race 2000 (1975), starring David Carradine and Sylvester Stallone; and Death Race (2008), starring Jason Statham. The 2008 version was a remake based on the screenplay of the 1975 film. Melchior also claimed to have originated the ideas for both Lost in Space and Star Trek, though these were later developed by Irwin Allen and Gene Roddenberry, respectively.
