The plot:
The best way to know this writer may be just starting with this book ..
The plot is unusual: In a charming and sleepy American town, a group of kids, for fun exploring the sewers, awakens from a sleep primordial formless and monstrous creature: It. And when, many years later, It begins to ask its toll, the same children, now adults, and family leave work to return to combat. And the nightmare begins ... Very beautiful the deeper meaning of this masterpiece, which are not foreshadowing anything .. But this is a phrase that is browsing online:
IT is not just a book is something that IT is in our midst, that is within us. He lives in our minds and it creeps into our fears.
Despite the more than 1,200 pages there is never a word that is too many. The descriptions of characters and places are the representation of a King "monstrous" as his book. As King writes in the preface of IT: The truth of this novel is simple magic exists.
I am convinced that after this book, you will open a new world, that I am still exploring!
writer: Stephen Edwin King was born
September 21, 1947 in Portland. His father is an employee of Electrolux, a former captain in the Merchant Marine until 1945 and engaged in World War II, and his mother, Nellie Ruth Pillsbury King, a homemaker of modest origins. Although the first-born, his parents adopted two years earlier, exactly on September 14, 1945, David Victor, but that will always be considered King a true brother.
In 1949, the father goes out to one of his walks and would never return home, because family problems. This event will mark deeply the character of the future writer, so that you can find in many novels the difficult father-son relationship (among others: It, Cujo, Christine and The Shining).
I have reported only a small part of his life, you will find the rest done on a site in my opinion very well, which is www.StephenKing.it - \u200b\u200bThe Reign of Terror - Home
He wrote several books using a pseudonym , Richard Bachman, and I think that is one of the best writers of horror / thriller / noir, never existed ..
I'm going to surprise you with special effects, in announcing that, yes, it was also a poet and expressed his creativity over the years college. Some works were published in literary magazines at the University of Maine. Some are even worth mentioning as some unpublished .., but unfortunately I do not have the opportunity to write the lines:
Imaginary places (unpublished)
Silence, Moth (1970)
She has gone to sleep while .. (1971)
Brooklyn August (1971)
Paranoid: a Chant, Skeleton Crew (1985)
Dino, Stephen King uncollected, Unpublished, Rocky Wood et al (2006)
If I find a moral in all this, I would say that are compartmentalized into thinking that the writer of poetry is romantic or just that the writer of thriller / horror etc.. is nothing.
