All Summer in a Day by Ray Bradbury


“The silence was so immense and unbelievable that you felt your ears had been stuffed or you had lost your hearing altogether.”


A particularly short story and yet it is a testament to the author’s skill how four short pages can evoke such intriguing imagery. Demonstrating the way in which science fiction uses the language and understanding of our world and contorts it to imagine another.

I am really trying to reach my target of books to read by the end of the year, so stay tuned for more quick snippet reads like this one!
