      She was a babe. A fully paid-up, card-carrying babe. There was absolutely no doubt about it, and she was heading straight for me. She was almost sprinting towards me across the recently reimagined lobby of Claridge’s. She looked up, her scarlet-anoin

      Here’s something I remember from 20-odd years ago: lying on the carpet, bone weary, in front of a pack of cards laid in a messy grid. Opposite me, crosslegged, sits the middle one, aged three, blond hair standing on end. I turn over a card, revealing

      I haven't finished this. I found it like wading through peanut butter--heavy going. I'll try to finish it, reading the odd story every now and then since I hate to judge the book on less than half of the content, but the first 10 or so stories really fell flat. None of the stories were well-plotted or gripped me to any extent, although there were glimmers of emotionally stirring writing. A great pity--I have loved Ray Bradbury's writing in the past.
    • 4/5
      This book of short stories turns largely on themes of memory and potential: who we were, who we thought we might become, who we actually become, and, having become that person, how we remember ourselves and others and the moments we inhabited together. Some of the stories have a feel of magical realism, while others drift into fantasy or horror and at least a few make their beginnings in the sci-fi genre. I rate this collection of tales at 7 of 10 stars.

      Bradbury hasn't really aged well or maybe I haven't. He just doesn't give me the same wow factor as when I was younger, and some of his stories are fairly obscure. Still great beach reading; stil a great author, but his stories don't stick anymore.
