From the Dust Returned
Ray Bradbury Earthlight 2001 HC 204pp
βIn the attic where the rain touched the roof softly on spring days and where you could feel the mantle of snow outside, a few inches way, on December nights, A Thousand Times Great Grandmere existed.β
Ray Bradbury rocks. He has had, I will admit, his less that great moments, but overall he Rocks!
This book is very lovely. A house with a family, who may or may not be vampires. Various adventures. I can't say that heaps happens or that the characters are always very clear, but Mr Bradbury writes with such a lyrical haunting quality that you are led breathless β and oh so very willingly β through this slight book. His language never misses a beat, it is so very beautiful and fine and all of us who worship the thesaurus and struggle for the right word

must worship this effortless and poetic author.
