My book this week is Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury.
It is essentially a collection of short stories that are held together because they all happen in the same town and are all witnessed by the same young man. If you have ever watched Ray Bradbury Theater some of the stories will be familiar to you. But don't assume you know how they will end. As with all short story collections some are better than others but I enjoyed them all.
My Friday 56:
"Be what you are, bury what you are not," he had said. "Tickets stubs are trickery. Saving things is a magic trick, with mirrors."
I guess I can see his point. But I have a box of mementos under my bed that I still plan to hold on to.
