“Dandelion Wine” - это захватывающая, лирическая история детства и идиллического лета на Среднем Западе, представленная в виде полномасштабной аудио-драматической постановки “The Colonial Theatre на воздухе” с звуковыми эффектами и блестящей музыкальной партитурой.
Двенадцатилетний Дуглас Сполдинг знает, что Грин Таун, штат Иллинойс, так же велик и глубок, как весь мир, лежащий за его пределами. Для Дугласа лето - это пара новых теннисных туфель, первый урожай одуванчиков для знаменитого напитка дедушки, отдаленный звон колокола на туманном полудне. Но, как скоро он обнаружит, лето может быть больше, чем повторение установленных ритуалов, которые удерживают время на месте. Это может быть лучший друг, который уезжает, машина времени, способная перенести вас обратно во времена Гражданской войны, или механический автомат, способный увидеть горько-сладкое будущее.

Описание книги от Jerry Robbins
Ray Bradbury's endearing, lyrical tale of boyhood and an idyllic Midwestern summer is presented here as a full-cast audio dramatization by The Colonial Theatre on the Air, complete with sound effects and a brilliant music score.Twelve-year-old Douglas Spaulding knows Green Town, Illinois, is as vast and deep as the whole world that lies beyond. For Douglas, summer is a pair of new tennis shoes, the first harvest of dandelions for Grandfather's renowned intoxicant, the distant clang of the trolley bell on a hazy afternoon. But as young Douglas is about to discover, summer can be more than the repetition of established rituals that hold time at bay. It can be a best friend moving away, a human time machine that can transport you back to the Civil War, or a sideshow automaton able to glimpse the bittersweet future.
