Utgivarens beskrivning
** With a bonus story **
'You like it darker? Fine, so do I' writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of stories that delve into the darker part of life - both metaphorical and literal.
Each of these stories holds its own thrills, joys and mysteries; each feels iconic. In 'Danny Coughlin's Bad Dream', a brief and unprecedented psychic flash upends dozens of lives, Danny's most catastrophically. 'Rattlesnakes', a sequel to Cujo, sees a grieving widower travel to Florida for respite and instead receive an unexpected inheritance - with major strings attached. 'The Answer Man' asks if prescience is good luck or bad and reminds us that a life marked by unbearable tragedy can still be meaningful.
King writes to feel 'the exhilaration of leaving ordinary day-to-day life behind' and his ability to surprise, amaze and bring us both terror and solace remains unsurpassed.
You like it darker? You got it.
'As classic as King's novels are, his shorter fiction has been just as gripping over the years' USA Today
'One of the great storytellers of our time' Guardian
Kundrecensioner
Stephen King - nice reading
This is a great book when you are on the run or just short of time. You can easily pick up where you left since there is small amount of caracters and take each story in your own pace, or read the whole story/novel because you just don’t want to quit.. Very nice stories that leaves a good feeling, not that scary, just peculiar and unexpecting outcomes. And as usual with Stephen King, he leaves you with a bit of imagination of your own to think of how the story would go on after the end. ( there really is no end)
I loved this collection, it is totally worth your time!
Stephen King är grym som vanligt
I 40 år har jag läst Stephen King. Min första bok var Cujo, och i en av novellerna i denna samling sluts just den cirkeln. I övrigt är det underbara noveller och man kan inte annat än beundra den otroliga kreativitet som King besitter.
