My Second Book

This time I chose a book called "Full Dark, No Stars" by Stephen King. It's not a complete story but a compilation of stories that are based on a common idea. In my opinion the title means that there are no characters in these stories you can call positive. The book includes:

  • 1922 
  • Big Driver 
  • Fair Extension 
  • Good Marriage 

The genre is not rather horror like most of King's books but psychological thriller with some horror elements. You won't find any monsters here, people are the monsters. The idea of the book is that inside every man there's a dark side of his soul - the Conniving Man - the side that is sleeping and waiting for an occasion to wake up. And the characters of the stories get into such situations.

    True enough)
    Have to say that most of Stephen King's books are about monsters of people. The idea that unites many King's novels is that it's not mythic Cthulhu who makes evil but some barking mad drunkard with an axe)
