Something Wicked This Way Comes

I picked this book for our October book club and oh boy did it not disappoint. It was a delight. Can I call it delicious? Can a book be delicious? His language, his wording is something to behold. I loved reading this book and I savored it. This paragraph is an example of Bradbury's beautiful writing. “She is immortal. She has a son. Your son, too! But what father ever really believes it? He carries no burden, he feels no pain. What man, like woman, lies down in darkness, and gets up with child? Oh, what strange wonderful clocks women are. They nest in Time. They make the flesh that holds fast and binds eternity. They live inside the gift, know power, accept, and need not mention it. Why speak of time when you are Time, and shape the universal moments, as they pass, into warmth and action? How men envy and often hate these warm clocks, these wives, who know they will live forever.“
It's a short book, if you've never read it, treat yourself to this classic this spooky season.
