Whoa, I didn't know they were available @ Amazon or anywhere else; I'll be checking that out too.
Almost every Bradbury story from Dark Carnival ( October Country ) is a masterpiece and a "must-read".
A funny side note about The Lake. A friend of mine in HS and I used to have a running dispute about the opening lines to the story: He always said "They cut the sky down to my size" and I vehemently argued that it opens with "The wave shut me off from the world". Neither of us refused to budge and it wasn't til years later that I found out we were BOTH right. Bradbury had edited some of the Dark Carnival stories for October Country, and that was one of the changes he made.
