The TV adaptation of Bradbury’s “The Lake” focuses more on the adult
man, who’s now thirty-something Doug, but the story structure and pathos of his lost
childhood love remain intact.
From the lake where Douglas and Tally played, circa 1963 ⋙ to the same lake, circa 1988. Note: As with [work-3954 | the original story[/ex], we’re uncertain whether young Tally traveled through time or not.
INDEXER NOTES (SPOILERS!)
