I don’t know Finney, I’ll have to investigate. I see than Audible has some Ellison that I can try. The Dahl that they have are his kid’s books.

Oh you MUST read Jack Finney; his books are fantastic; as are his short stories and novellas! TIME AND AGAIN is about time travel and when I read it, I knew well every single place, in NYC that is in that book, as well as family stories that had taken place at that time...so it really "spoke" to me. But everyone I have ever suggested that book to has loved it!

Some of his short stories are also fantasy, one novella is a ghost story and also marvelous. The movie made from it was not well done at all; sadly.

Too bad re Dahl's adult work; his murder mysteries are delightful and wickedly funny!
