Chronicle Concering Books The Bazaar of Bad Dreams

A master storyteller at his best—the O. Henry Prize winner Stephen King delivers a generous collection of stories, several of them brand-new, featuring revelatory autobiographical comments on when, why, and how he came to write (or rewrite) each story. Since his first collection, Nightshift, published thirty-five years ago, Stephen King has dazzled readers with his genius as a writer of short fiction. In this new collection he assembles, for the first time, recent stories that have never been published in a book. He introduces each with a passage about its origins or his motivations for writing it. There are thrilling connections between stories; themes of morality, the afterlife, guilt, what we would do differently if we could see into the future or correct the mistakes of the past. “Afterlife” is about a man who died of colon cancer and keeps reliving the same life, repeating his mistakes over and over again. Several stories feature characters at the end of life, revisiting their crimes and misdemeanors. Other stories address what happens when someone discovers that he has supernatural powers—the columnist who kills people by writing their obituaries in “Obits;” the old judge in “The Dune” who, as a boy, canoed to a deserted island and saw names written in the sand, the names of people who then died in freak accidents. In “Morality,” King looks at how a marriage and two lives fall apart after the wife and husband enter into what seems, at first, a devil’s pact they can win. Magnificent, eerie, utterly compelling, these stories comprise one of King’s finest gifts to his constant reader—“I made them especially for you,” says King. “Feel free to examine them, but please be careful. The best of them have teeth.”

Write Up About Books The Bazaar of Bad Dreams

There's something about reading an author that was once great that's akin to watching a power hitter stepping up to the plate in the waning years of his career. There he is, a big man, and the bat still looks like a toothpick in his hands. He's perfectly capable of knocking it out of the park. You've seen him do it plenty of times, so every time he goes up there, it's electric, you just have to watch. The first pitch comes, he swings hard...and misses. With the seond pitch he makes contact, it's

4+ Stars Within the pages of the twenty stories presented in THE BAZAAR OF BAD DREAMS, there is some really great stuff and only four that I'd read previously, (that I enjoyed again) but the very best part of this collection (for me) were the secret tidbits of information SK discloses about himself and his life in the initial introduction and prior to each tale; for example, Dam! Wouldn't you just love to run into STEPHEN KING in the grocery store.....well one lady does and the outcome is

My favorite stories from this collection were:-Mile 81-Bad Little Kid-Morality-Ur-Obits-Summer ThunderThe rest, (including two poems) were a bit of a snooze-fest for me. Looking back through the table of contents to list my favorites, I saw some titles and actually couldn't remember what the stories were about. But the ones I listed I REALLY liked, so all in all it's a fairly solid collection. I also skipped listening to Drunken Fireworks, since I've already listened to that one. Some of the

In my humble opinion, Stephen King is the greatest living short story writer, and this new collection of tiny tales is yet more evidence of this.These stories are varied in scope and, for the most part, moving and/or clever. I always enjoy King's short introductions to his tales, too, giving the reader some insight into the event(s) that inspired him to write them.The only reason I've given this collection four stars instead of five is that I'd already spent good money on a number of these

Reseña de todos los relatos y de la colección en general en el blog: Click aquíThe Bazaar of Bad Dreams is a collection of 18 short stories and 2 poems by Stephen King and, as with every collection he has published, it's a mixed bag: there were some very good stories and a couple that were kind of lame. Still, the only one I really hated was a poem because I'm not a big fan of those.Even though I think that none of these stories deserves a five star rating, it's a very solid collection that kept

For some authors, creating a large body of work doesn't mean quality has to suffer. Unfortunately, there are readers and critics who make exactly that assumption. As a result, when you're as prolific as Stephen King, you're prone to the following dangers: --Folks using verbs like "spewing," "spitting," "cranking out," or "vomiting" in reference to the frequency with which you're published. --More books mean more opportunities for criticism. In that vein, many readers tend to forget ten great

Damn, I love when a book beats my expectations. I enjoyed a bunch in this collection of 20 varied stories. My personal favorites:Batman and Robin Have an Altercation - A son taking care of his old man with dementia. Well, Vice-versa Batman.The Dune - The Judge has been visiting this little island just off the shore of his home all his life - for a hell of a good reason. Kicker of an ending too.Bad Little Kid - This little fucker deserves some pay back. Let's hope he gets it.Ur - A Kindle with
