This science fiction short story features in two of Bradbury's collections: A MEDICINE FOR MELANCHOLY and S IS FOR SPACE. Neither disappoints. Loved teaching this one in my science fiction unit. Bradbury's prose is poetic and terrifying.

Originally Two Stories consisted of “Three Jews” by Leonard and “The Mark on the Wall” by Virginia.

Who knew that it was possible to get so many thoughts from looking at a mark on the wall? In the introduction to the story it said that this is when we first see the author Virginia is to become and I can see that.

This edition contains a story by Mark Haddon titled “St Brides Bay” which seems to mirror Virginia‘s writing style.

One of my favorite poets 💖

Cuốn sách này nói về câu chuyện thú vị của một phi công mắc kẹt trên sa mạc Sahara và gặp Hoàng tử bé từ hành tinh B-612.
Cậu bé đã du hành qua nhiều hành tinh, gặp những nhân vật kỳ lạ như một vị vua cô đơn và một doanh nhân bận rộn...mỗi cuộc gặp mang đến những bài học sâu sắc
Cuốn sách phản ánh sự khác biệt giữa sự ngây thơ của trẻ em và thế giới phức tạp của người lớn.
Nếu bạn chưa đọc thì quả thật rất đang tiếc

#VirginiaBloomsberries September #buddyread is Two Stories. This is her 2nd publication from 1917. It was published by The Hogarth Press, set up by Leonard and Virginia Woolf. I'm reading the centennial copy with a commisioned essay by Mark Haddon.
A discussion thread will be posted at the end of the month.

Love this! The first on my list is my favourite line of this lot. You‘ll never guess which book the second belongs to.

“In the fabled, glittering world that was St Petersburg before the First World War there lived, in an ice-blue palace overlooking the river Neva, a family on whom the gods seemed to have lavished their gifts with an almost comical abundance.”

“I am the vampire Lestat.”

“A secret is a strange thing.” ⬇️

Books scored at the Singleton PCYC book sale last Friday. It‘s 2nd last day as I couldn‘t make the day either side. There were so many books it was overwhelming. I managed a quick glance through all the boxes. I‘d already been to 2 op shops so this was all I could carry. I was sore the next day. Grand total $13.

A Modern Library Giant. A book I couldn‘t resist at Goodwill even though I have too many books! My bone to pick is in the subtitle , by the “men “ who made it. No women here , expected in the time frame. I‘m sure I will still like it 😁

I moved to London when I was 21. I didn't know a single person there. I explored London through Dickens and loved every minute of it. I certainly came to know and love the place very quickly.
