Add a CommentA wonderful trip to 1950s Hollywood seen through the eyes of a semi-self loathing screenwriter who becomes embroiled in a delightful mystery laden land filled with a cast of unforgettable characters. Quite funny, albeit odd, dialogue between the characters and a sense of constant danger from the evil that can be done by Hollywood's upper echelon keeps the reader entertained throughout. A Graveyard for Lunatics is a quick enjoyable read that has easily turned me into a Bradbury fan.
