America does not have any finer teller of tales than Ray Bradbury. For more than fifty years he has regaled us with wonders, enchanted us with memories, and startled us with simple truths, enabling us to view from fresh perspectives the globe we inhabit, and see others we never dreamed existed.Now the master treats us to some other round -- eighteen brand -- new stories and seven previously published but nothing you've seen prior collected-proof positive that his magic is as potent as ever. This is a rich elixir distilled from the pungent fruit of experience and imagination, expertly prepared by an excellent mixologist whose hand is sure and whose eyes and ears have long used the shouting, weeping, carping, reveling life throughout him.Sip the sweet innocence of youth, and the wisdom and folly -- old. Taste the warm mysteries of summer and the bitterness of betrayed loves and abandoned places. This glass overflows with a heady brew that will set your brain spinning and carry anyone to remarkable locales: a house where time does not have any boundaries; a cinema where deconstructed schlock is drunkenly reassembled into art; a faraway planet suffering from an epidemic of sorrow; a wheat field that hides a strangely welcome enemy. The comforts of arguments eternal; the addictive terror of a predawn telephone call; the ghosts of dear friends, of errant sons and lost fathers, and of lovers both joyously remembered and never-to-be, are but some of the ingredients which have gone into Bradbury's savory cocktail. And every satisfying swallow brings new surprises and revelations.One More for the street is superb refreshment served with wit, heart, and flair by the incomparable Bradbury. This one's on Ray.The miracles of water!
