In Ray Bradbury’s novel, FAHRENHEIT 451, the characters acting as “book preservers” memorize books. In Dean’s BOOK EATERS, that’s what some characters are gifted to do: for some, living on the Yorkshire Moors, books are quite literally food.
Devon is of The Family, a devourer of fair tales and childhood tales. But she has a son who is born with a hunger not of books, but human minds.
