Stephen King

The Bazaar of Bad Dreams (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The short story OBITS won the 2016 Edgar for best short story.

The No.1 bestselling author delivers an 'outstanding' (USA Today) collection of thrilling stories, introducing each one with a fascinating piece on when, where or how he came to write it.

There is a treasure here for every reader: a man who keeps reliving exactly the same life, repeating his mistakes over and over again; a columnist who kills people by writing their obituaries; a poignant tale about the end of the human race and a firework competition between neighbours which reaches an explosive climax. And, exclusive to this paperback edition (and the eBook from 6 September), a brand new story 'Cookie Jar'.

'I made them especially for you,' says King. 'Feel free to examine them, but please be careful. The best of them have teeth.'

Rezensionen

"Renowned author King's impressive latest collection wraps 20 stories and poems in fascinating commentary...the stories themselves are meditations on mortality, destiny, and regret, all of which showcase King's talent for exploring the human condition...this introspective collection, like many of King's most powerful works, draws on the deepest emotions: love, grief, fear and hope." Publishers Weekly, STARRED review

He seduces you with an intimate author's note introducing each tale, then proceeds to chill you to the bone. Do not read before bed Daily Mail
