adorará Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se gostará deste livro. There is no such thing as vintage King. He has broken all kinds of barriers with his writing. Expect the unexpected from Mr. King. A great collection. There's a lot to like about this collection of long stories. The opener, "Low Men in Yellow Coats," is set firmly in the Dark Tower universe but also a great standalone coming-of-age story. The remaining stories are about the Vietnam generation, both during the war and after it, and aren't necessarily the supernatural horror that King is known for. Of these, the most compelling are the title story and "Heavenly Shades of Night Are Falling," the last story, but the entire collection is very good writing and kind of a departure for King. The second Stephen King fiction I've read (Bag of Bones), there was a longing for normalcy among the characters. Bobby Garfield, a child in the first chapter and middle-aged by the last, is a long lasting character memory-wise. I'm told other characters like the extraterrestrial Ted recur in the Dark Tower series. Quite an engaging book I'm glad I read. Enjoyed this collection of stories more than I expected. The first story, "Low Men in Yellow Coats," is part of the Dark Tower canon, though the title story is King at his best as a writer.The movie took the name of the collection, but was based on "Low Men" alone. And it was terrible. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

I really like the Ted Brautigan character, but the overall tone of all the stories is too depressing. (
