The Golden Apples of the Sun is a collection of thirty-two of the most famous short stories by Ray Bradbury. It is named after the Yeats poem The Song of Wandering Aengus, which has the lines:
I will find out where she has gone
And kiss her lips and take her hands;
And walk among the dappled grass,
And pluck till time and times are done
The silver apples of the moon,
The golden apples of the sun.
The book was originally published in 1953 with twenty-two stories. The 1997 edition removed two stories (The Pedestrian and Hail and Farewell), and added twelve more. The book is currently published under the title A Sound of Thunder and Other Stories (2005).
