FREE: Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury

The listing, Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury has ended.

Ray Bradbury's moving recollection of a vanished golden era remains one of his most enchanting novels. Dandelion Wine stands out in the Bradbury literary canon as the author's most deeply personal work, a semi-autobiographical recollection of a magical small-town summer in 1928. Twelve-year-old Douglas Spaulding knows Green Town, Illinois, is as vast and deep as the whole wide world that lies beyond the city limits. It is a pair of brand-new tennis shoes, the first harvest of dandelions for Grandfather's renowned intoxicant, the distant clang of the trolley's bell on a hazy afternoon. It is yesteryear and tomorrow blended into an unforgettable always. But as young Douglas is about to discover, summer can be more than the repetition of established rituals whose mystical power holds time at bay. It can be a best friend moving away, a human time machine who can transport you back to the Civil War, or a sideshow automaton able to glimpse the bittersweet future. Come and savor Ray Bradbury's priceless distillation of all that is eternal about boyhood and summer.


-= PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING =-
Obviously this is a stock photo. I can assure you that ALL of the books from my own personal library (of well over 1000 books) are in near pristine condition. While they have all been read, some several times, they are all well taken care of with no rips, tears or stains. While I do not smoke, I will not guarantee the environment in which they lived before they came to be with me. This particular paperback book is in VERY GOOD condition.

Shipping is for Media Mail and will be combined if more than one book is won. I do ask that you tell me you are bidding (or planning on bidding) on more than one of my items.

Good luck and thanks for looking!
