OK, Djinn, here's a short review for you (and anyone else who might care to look )

From the Dust Returned by Ray Bradbury

This review does not have to be too long. Ray Bradbury, in my opinion, is one of the truly gifted writers of the last 50 or so years. In this book he revises and republishes the tales of some of his most enduring creations, the Elliott Family, the House and the strange rituals of Homecoming.

At times Bradbury weaves words in such a way that "narrative" seems inadequate to describe the text - it becomes more like a prose poem. It’s a term much overused, but what we have here is true genius.
