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
