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.

I stumbled onto this book not knowing that it would become one of my favorites until I read about three pages. Mr. Bradbury took me back to my childhood summers in the 60’s and 70’s in a way I didn’t expect. I laughed, cried, and oh so reminisced as I listened to each page. Even though the book was set in 1928, I was taken back to my suburban youth spending summers free with ample time to savor the season. What a gift!

A book that I’ll listen to or read now every summer.

A good lesson for any writer attempting a new approach to writing something that is basically a memoir. You can see where King gets his inspiration.

My only issue is that the about 70% of the narration has HEAVY breathing. This narrator is very good and capable of minimizing his breathing as some parts are ok but other / most parts are inserted with very heavy breathing. It is very distracting.

A lesson for writers

Dandelion Wine is a meditation on the present slipping into the past, an instruction manual for how we say goodbye. I love the way it whispers its truth. I love the way that it buckles something inside me and releases the long slow breath I’ve been holding my whole life.

Many years ago, my young daughter and I took a road trip to meet Mr. Bradbury. This was the first book I asked him to sign, and afterwards, it was the one I held tightest. Dandelion Wine has been an important influence on my own writing, and it was wonderful to revisit it with this excellent recording.

There is deep wisdom throughout this book. The imagery, the characters, the poignant expressions of human experience - this is a very. good. book.

Deeply nostalgic yet lighthearted

Boring, dragged slowly. I couldn’t listen to all of it. I am very disappointed with this one.
