It's a Good Life
by
by
"It's a Good Life" is a horror story about three-year-old Anthony Fremont who has omnipotent superpowers. People in town have to pretend that everything is "good" all the time because Anthony might change things with worse results. As the story moves on, the reader becomes more and more aware of the full extent of Anthony's powers.
The town is like a totalitarian regime--with a creepy little child making all the decisions, and people pretending that everything is wonderful in order to survive. This short story was adapted into an episode of "The Twilight Zone" in 1961.
"It's a Good Life" is in the collection "Black Water 2: More Tales of the Fantastic" which I'm reading with the Short Story Club.
