Ah, but Mr. Bradbury is a very poetic writer, and a lot of his novels are poetry in paragraph form. Not all, but a lot, such as that Wicked book, and Dandelion Wine (my favorite) and From the Dust Returned. Of course, I like Shakespeare too, but then, I was an English major and it's required (page 52 on the English Major's handbook).
Something Wicked... is among my favorite books So, yes, I like the way it's written. ...I'm tired, so maybe that wasn't clear. Or it was. Who knows.

But, yes, just so the world knows - "Something Wicked This Way Comes" is among my favorite books, along with Shirley Jackson's "The Haunting of Hill House" - oddly, for one of it's more 'poetic' passages.
