This week, we read and discuss Ray Bradbury's haunting carnival tale Something Wicked This Way Comes. The book follows two young friends, Jim and Will, living in a small town in Illinois. When a mysterious carnival arrives in the middle of the night, it's up to Jim and Will, along with Will's father Charles Halloway, to unravel the secrets of this carnival and protect the town from its horrors. Then, inspired by the fact that Something Wicked is a lesser known Bradbury novel (compared to Fahrenheit 451), we talk about lesser known books by famous authors.
