Something Wicked This Way Comes

[Anonymous No.11773282]

This book is the anti-Ligotti for the following reasons:

1. It's actually good
2. The prose is well put together, colourful rather than over the top
3. It tackles a lot of the same themes, eg the inevitability of death, ageing, etc, but instead of throwing a depressive crying tantrum the author shows that not only is it something not to worry about, it's something to be laughed at
4. It isn't shilled endlessly by pathetic antinatalists, who are ideological detritus.

Hands down the best book I've read this year.

This is the only book I've wanted to burn while reading it.

That book scared me while I was a kid. Bradbury was my favorite author tho. Martian Chronicles were my favorite.

have only read fahrenheit somenumber and it was ok, I liked it, but nothing impressive, so I've never been interested in Bradbury again

It's an excellent look at the inevitable decline and death we all face

It's Bradbury's best work

Of that order Dandelion Wine's his best. Something Wicked's a fine cautionary tale however- the upshot being that one content oneself, or that one be happy (be grateful even) with what and where one is and with what one has.
