More than twenty-five stories of horror and nightmarish fantasy transform everyday situations into experiences of compelling terror in the worlds of the living, the dying, and the nonliving.

«A master. . . . [King] will catch you in his web and reach you at an elemental level where there is no defense.» —The Cincinnati Enquirer

«Stephen King has built a literary genre of putting ordinary people in the most terrifying situations. . . . he’s the author who can always make the improbable so scary you’ll feel compelled to check the locks on the front door.» —The Boston Globe “Peerless imagination.” —The Observer (London)

Цитаты

    love is the most pernicious drug of all. Let the romantics debate its existence. Pragmatists accept it and use it.

    . I started to think, maybe if you think of a thing long enough, and believe in it, it gets real
  • Yulia Yurchakцитируетв прошлом году
    When you read horror, you don't really believe what you read. You don't believe in vampires, werewolves, trucks that suddenly start up and drive themselves. The horrors that we all do believe in are of the sort that Dostoyevsky and Albee and MacDonald write about: hate, alienation, growing lovelessly old, tottering out into a hostile world on the unsteady legs of adolescence. We are, in our real everyday worlds, often like the masks of Comedy and Tragedy, grinning on the outside, grimacing on the inside. There's a central switching point somewhere inside, a transformer, maybe, where the wires leading from those two masks connect. And that is the place where the horror story so often hits home
