En savoir plus sur le livre
From legendary storyteller Stephen King comes an extraordinary collection of twelve short stories, featuring many never-before-published works alongside some of his best. In the afterword, King states, “You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” setting the tone for these narratives that explore the darker aspects of life—both metaphorical and literal. For over fifty years, King has mastered the short story form, and these tales about fate, mortality, and the unpredictable folds of reality are as rich and engaging as his novels. King aims to evoke the exhilaration of escaping ordinary life, and readers will experience that thrill repeatedly. In "Two Talented Bastids," the secret behind the protagonists' skills is revealed. "Danny Coughlin’s Bad Dream" portrays how a brief psychic insight disrupts many lives, particularly Danny's. "Rattlesnakes," a sequel to Cujo, follows a grieving widower who seeks solace in Florida but faces unexpected complications tied to an inheritance. "The Dreamers" features a Vietnam vet who discovers some mysteries of the universe are best left unexplored. "The Answer Man" questions whether foresight is a blessing or a curse, emphasizing that even a life filled with tragedy can hold meaning. King's ability to surprise and evoke both terror and solace remains unmatched, making each story a unique thrill.
