That's not what people talk about when they talk about him, but it's true. It's a subject that needs to be written about entirely without pretense and absolutely free of language too large for ball games and playing in the mud. Between this one, The Bodyand Itthe good reader will find himself transported into the actual moments of young pleasure, before girls Hearts in Atlantis over and ruin the perfect freedom of true youth. Not that g No one has ever Hearts in Atlantis the joys of boyhood better than Stephen King. Not that girls are bad, of course, Hearts in Atlantis that something breaks at the moment when boys become aware of them and it never comes all the way back. Often, I wonder about how much of a man's life is spent trying to dance between the moment before and the excitement that comes after the discovery of girls. This small gap is the space that King covers in several of his books and all of them are delightful and thrilling in the way that only a carnival can be to a young boy. Moments of the supernatural and plot aside, Hearts in Atlantis this subject that draws me to the book. For reasons I can't fully explain, I've read the first pages of this one half a dozen times over the years but never finished it. I've purchased the audiobook twice by accident and bought the paperback two or three times lost copies. I've decided to finish it this time because it's been hanging there, a desire that's been unfulfilled and dangling over me for years. Somehow, I need to be free of it, or at least have passed the experience into the history of my reading pleasures. So here I go. William Hurt was a good choice for the audiobook. There's something about his voice that's trance-like and lulls you right in. I'm glad I've decided to finally and fully experience the book in just this way. King himself read the the next two stories in the book. Some reviewers suggested that the other stories were boring, but that wasn't my feel at all. I quite enjoyed them, especially the title story. It's not exactly the stuff of horror lore. If you're that sort, you might want to shuffle on and find another book because this one is far too delicate and filled with entirely too much longing for the adventure seeking reader. Hurt returned for the final story. By now, the crossover between all the stories and characters was wrapped up tight and everywhere. It seemed almost like a novel with shifting perspectives over the years. Depending on your point of view, the interconnections could come across as overly- coincidental or just a tidy way of letting us know where things ended up with various people we'd come to know in their youth. I prefer the latter. Actually, I loved touching in on people years later, finding out how they'd turned out without the direct story of it ever really being the point of the story itself. The plain fact is that this book got to me far more than it should have. It was a beautiful novel shaped like short stories and made of youth lost and memory unwound. Maybe it took me so long to actually read it because I needed the years between to lose more and more of my past into the old fireplace of time. Maybe I needed to remember only enough to know how much I'd lost and how beautiful so much of it had been. Maybe it's a book that can only be understood when your life has made the same sorts of strange turns and you look back, wondering, lost, Hearts in Atlantis. View all 19 comments. Oct 03, J.

Hearts in Atlantis the face of it I always thought Hearts in Atlantis means the card-game featured in the book, but I swear it means more. What do you think Constant Reader? Right get a cuppa The opening novella - Low Men In Yellow CoatsHearts in Atlantis simply an exquisite and remarkable coming of age story for young Bobby Garfield, which King manages to not only write formidably, but also deep tie it in with The Dark Tower, whilst tearing the skin off of what it was like to be single parent in s America, and indeed to be a single unattached old Hearts in Atlantis. A phenomenal piece of writing on par with King's ' The Body '. Hearts in Atlantis - Wikipedia

Rarely does a movie make Hearts in Atlantis feel so warm and so uneasy at the same time, as Stephen King's story Hearts in Atlantis the mystery of adolescence, when everything seems to be happening for the very first time. Set inthe movie tells the story of an year-old named Bobby Anton Yelchin whose father died when he was 5, whose mother Hope Davis seems too distracted Hearts in Atlantis love him, whose life centers on his best friend Sully Will Rothhaarand Carol Gerber Mika Booremwith whom he will share a first kiss by which he will judge all the others. As is often the case in King stories, the period is recreated through an intense memory of cars, radio shows, clothes, baseball mitts--material treasures in an uncertain world. Then Hearts in Atlantis man comes as a boarder in the upstairs apartment Hearts in Atlantis Bobby's house. This Hearts in Atlantis Ted Brautigan Anthony Hopkins. Bobby is often home alone his mother is much distracted by her office joband Ted offers root beer, conversation, and even a dollar a week to read him the paper. Then he reveals a more shadowy assignment for Bobby: Keeping a lookout for Low Men, who are seeking Ted because they want to use his gift. By now Bobby does not have to be told that Ted can sometimes foresee the future; Bobby has the same ability, but muted. The Low Men themselves are as symbolic as real. In the King story it's hinted they may come from another world or time, and in Hearts in Atlantis movie they may be FBI agents who want to use Ted's powers for the government, but it hardly matters; in either version, they are the hard realities of an adult world that takes the gifted and the unconforming and either uses them or destroys them. Scott Hearts in Atlantis and Piotr Sobocinski, who directed and photographed the movie, have wisely seen that atmosphere is everything in "Hearts of Atlantis. In this world, Bobby grows up. He is threatened by an older neighborhood bully, he is in love with Carol Gerber, he is in awe of Ted. When Bobby's mother gives him an adult library card for his birthday, it is Ted who advises him which authors bear reading. There are wonderful set pieces in the film. One of the best is the way Ted tells Bobby Hearts in Atlantis story of the great Chicago Bears running back Bronco Nagurski, who came out of retirement, old and hurt, and seemed to carry the whole Chicago Cardinals team on his back as he marched down the field in a last hurrah. Another is a visit to a pool hall in a neighboring town, where Ted wants to place a bet, and Bobby meets Hearts in Atlantis woman who knew his father. The movie ends as childhood ends, in disillusionment at the real world that lies ahead. Bobby's mother is cruelly divested of her illusions, and later lashes out at the innocent Ted, and then the Low Men come, as they always do. But Bobby's summer had to end, and at least he experienced Hearts in Atlantis best of all possible kisses. A movie like this is kind of a conjuring act. Like a Hearts in Atlantis of Stephen King's recent work, it is not a horror story so much as an everyday story with horror lurking in the margins. It's not a genre movie, in other words, but the story of characters we believe in and care about. Anton Yelchin is not just a cute kid but a smart and wary one, and Mika Boorem is not just the girl down the street but the kind of soul who inspires the best in others. And Anthony Hopkins finds just the tired, truthful note for Ted Brautigan--who knows the worst about men and fears for his future, but still has enough faith to believe it will do a kid good to read the right books. So, should you therefore read the book after seeing the movie? I would recommend the audiobook; William Hurt's reading is one of the best audio performances I have ever heard.
