Synopsis: Different Seasons (1982) is a collection of four novellas, markedly different in tone and subject, each on the theme of a journey. The first is a rich, satisfying, nonhorrific tale about an innocent man who carefully nurtures hope and devises a wily scheme to escape from prison. The second...

I'm a little embarrassed to admit this is the very first work of Stephen King's I've read. More embarrassing since my family lives in Maine, which is also his home state. I'm not much of a horror person, so I chose this classic instead. And it was great! What are your favorite King novels? And what ...

It's amazing the amount of Stephen King movies I saw before I even read a single word of his prose, and even more amazing to me that I only realized just how much of it was his stuff when I discovered the internets.

I'm not particularly a fan of King's horror stuff but when he writes about the "real" world he's a match for almost anyone. These stories are all classics, particularly "The Body".
