*PDF Books* If It Bleeds BY : Stephen King DETAIL ● Author : Stephen King ● Pages : 448 pages ● Publisher : Scribner ● Language : ● ISBN-10 : 54304137-if-it-bleeds ● ISBN-13 : 9781982137984 Description *#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* From the legendary storyteller and master of short fiction Stephen King comes an extraordinary collection of four new “exceptionally compelling novellas that reaffirm [King’s] mastery of the form” (The Washington Post).Readers adore Stephen King’s novels, and his novellas are their own dark treat, briefer but just as impactful and enduring as his longer fiction. Many of his novellas have been made into iconic films, including “The Body” (Stand By Me) and “Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption” (Shawshank Redemption). Four brilliant new tales in If It Bleeds are sure to prove as iconic as their predecessors. Once again, King’s remarkable range is on full display. In the title story, reader favorite Holly Gibney (from the Mr. Mercedes trilogy and The Outsider) must face her fears, and possibly another outsider—this time on her own. In “Mr. Harrigan’s Phone” an intergenerational friendship has a disturbing afterlife. “The Life of Chuck” explores, beautifully, how each of us contains multitudes. And in “Rat,” a struggling writer must contend with the darker side of ambition. If these novellas show King’s range, they also prove that certain themes endure. One of King’s great concerns is evil, and in If It Bleeds, there’s plenty of it. There is also evil’s opposite, which in King’s fiction often manifests as friendship. Holly is reminded that friendship is not only life-affirming but can be life-saving. Young Craig befriends Mr. Harrigan, and the sweetness of this late-in-life connection is its own reward. “Exactly what I wanted to read right now,” said Ruth Franklin in a rave on the cover of The New York Times Book Review. “Phenomenal," said Brian Truitt in USA TODAY. “King still owns the fright business like none other.” Suport On:[Android] [Iphone] [Windows] [Mac os] [Linux] Download here .

Praying Is Believing
Praying is believing Stephen King has a new one — “The Outsider” (Simon & Schuster, $30). I’ll take it. We’ve been together a long time. I wasn’t with him when he was peddling stories to men’s magazines back in the early 1970s. But I found him quick when “Carrie” (Penguin Random House, $9.99), his first book of scary fiction, came out in 1974. He had been only a year ahead of me at our respective New England colleges, and I’ve been with him ever since. He developed a reputation as a horror writer early, and “Salem’s Lot” (Penguin Random House, $16), a re-telling of the Dracula story, is probably one of the classics of harum-scarum in American fiction. But I don’t like to pigeonhole him. “The Shining” (Penguin Random House, $16.95) and“The Stand” (Penguin Random House, $17) are classics in American fiction. Period. He wrote all three in his 20s. If I didn’t enjoy them so much I would have been horribly jealous. Sure, he’s had a clunker or two — “Gerald’s Game” (Simon & Schuster, $17) was not my cup of tea. But then there is “The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon” (Simon & Schuster, $17), which I consider an absolutely beautiful story. King is not Catholic. He was born and raised Methodist and is identified as such today. But “The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon” is so thoroughly Catholic in spirit that I’d swear he swam the Tiber. A warning to readers: A gruesome murder and tough language are integral to “The Outsider.” Those who read King know what to expect.

The World of Books End of Watch Stephen King by Richa Mohan ©
The World of Books End Of Watch Stephen King by Richa Mohan © Hello and welcome to another episode of the World of Books. So did you enjoy reading the Avenue of Mysteries? Today, we travel into the realm of the unreal, the supernatural or the plain “out of world.” And dive into the imaginative world of the “King” of horror. Stephen King. The name itself needs no introduction. He alone is responsible for thrilling a whole generation with his works, and creating new followers every day. King has numerous bestsellers and movies as well as TV adaptations to his name and has won many awards. He was born in Portland, Maine and initially qualified to be a teacher at high school. However, he was unable to find a job immediately, and had to work as a laborer to support his family (he was by now married). He supplemented his income by selling short stories to men’s magazines many of which were later compiled and published in the book “Night Shift” and other anthologies. Even as a kid he wrote stories for fun contributing to a magazine his brother used to publish. In 1971, he got a job at an Academy in Maine but he continued writing short stories and novels. In 1973, his first novel was accepted for publication by Doubleday & Co. It is said that during this time he developed a drinking problem which bothered him most of his life. He also wrote some stories under the pseudonym Richard Bachman. King was always inclined towards horror and even as a kid used to love reading such books.

P E R R Y S C O P E 8 Perryscope 8 PERRYSCOPE 8, March 2021, is an issue of the personalzine published, whenever the mood takes him, by Perry Middlemiss, 32 Elphin Grove, Hawthorn, Victoria, AUSTRALIA 3122. E: [email protected] Produced initially for ANZAPA (the Australian and New Zealand Amateur Publishing Association) and then whoever else unlucky enough to receive it. Also available for download at efanzines.com with thanks to Bill Burns. Unless otherwise specified all material is written by me. Cover photo by Robyn Mills, August 2019, Iceland. INTRODUCTION This month I finish off my Best of’s for 2020, covering Film and Television. This will be the end to the interminable lists. At least until January 2022 when I’ll probably be doing this all over again. You have been warned. As I write the state of Victoria has now gone back into a short, sharp, total lock-down of 5 days due to a new outbreak of COVID-19 in the community. As much as some people might find this hard to cope with I don’t see another method of ensuring the virus is kept under control until the various vaccines start to roll out and we get the vaccinations up to an acceptable level. Time to contemplate travel again, if only in a wistful, staring-out-the-window, sort of way. So the cover photo of me in Iceland about to start our little whale watching tour on a speedboat, and my piece that follows this about my various hats are really just balm to my travel itch.
