Stephen King is the author of more than fifty books, all of them worldwide bestsellers. Among his most recent are the Dark Tower novels, Cell, From a Buick 8, Everything's Eventual, Hearts in Atlantis, The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, and Bag of Bones. His acclaimed nonfiction book, On Writing, was also a bestseller. He is the recipient of the 2003 National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. He lives in Bangor, Maine, with his wife, novelist Tabitha King.
Eerie twists of fate drive the four longish stories in King's first collection since Just After Sunset (2008). In "1922," a farmer murders his wife to retain the family land she hopes to sell, then watches his life unravel hideously as the consequences of the killing suggest a near-supernatural revenge. "Big Driver" tells of an otherwise ordinary woman who discovers her extraordinary capacity for retribution after she is raped and left for dead. "A Good Marriage" explores the aftermath of a wife's discovery of her milquetoast husband's sinister secret life, while "Fair Extension," the book's most disturbing story, follows the relationship between a man and the best friend on whom he preternaturally shifts all his bad luck and misfortune. As in Different Seasons (1982), King takes a mostly nonfantastic approach to grim themes. Now, as then, these tales show how a skilled storyteller with a good tale to tell can make unsettling fiction compulsively readable.
斯蒂芬·金(Stephen King)于二零零零年出版了《写作这回事 : 创作生涯回忆录 》(On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft),这本书半是自传,半是对于自我职业的简洁回顾。他很清楚那些认为他不能写作的人的反应,用他的话来说,这些人认为他就象是一个镇上的妓女,试图教导良家妇...
评分 评分"There is another man inside every man, a stranger..." "If you like it, it likes you... " 这两句话在合上书后,还清晰地回荡在我脑海里,并让我想到四个字 “跗骨之蛆”……我要描述的不是反胃或者恶心,而是一种让人发自内心颤抖又反复挥之不去的,一种很黑暗带有很大...
评分 评分这本书断断续续读了好久,好在是四个故事组成的,不会读了后面忘了前面。喜欢书的最后,作者讲述他写这些故事的那些思路来源。 史蒂芬金在书里放大了人们的'恶'的念头,并且耐心的一步一步去描绘主角真实的想法,直到这些想法变得畸形。最后导致犯罪。为了突出这个过程,每个...
有几刻真的被吓到了????。四星半吧。
评分四篇比较扭曲的中篇小说,很久之前看的,忘了具体题目了。特别喜欢那篇主角报复自己老朋友的故事。越是所谓“好朋友”就越容易成仇。本书就素质而论够得上5星。但是现在评价,尤其是已经看过了最新的《11/22/63》,只好委屈它一个4星了。
评分有几刻真的被吓到了????。四星半吧。
评分看完"Big Driver"后推荐看电影《三块广告牌》"A Good Marriage"后推荐电影《八毫米》。If you’re going into a very dark place, then you should take a bright light, and shine it on everything. If you don’t want to see, why in God’s name would you dare the dark at all? I never truckled; I never took off my hat to Fashion and held it out for pennies. By God, I told them the truth.
评分非常不错,除了big driver稍微挫点,总体都非常好看。尤其是1922
