Such a jaunty post-war cover! I got this several years ago after finally watching
Quatermass and the Pit and I'm glad I did. This collection is sort of like many of Ray Bradbury's--a good number of stories that are weird/genre, and then a number of other stories that are non-genre. However, I think they're all very good--and surprisingly cruel, in some cases. "The Stocking" is breathtakingly mean-spirited and very Birkin.
