À propos de cet audio

Winner of the 2020 Audio Publishers Association Lifetime Achievement Award

Includes the story “Premium Harmony”—set in the fictional town of Castle Rock, Maine

The masterful #1 New York Times bestselling story collection from O. Henry Prize winner Stephen King that includes twenty-one iconic stories with accompanying autobiographical comments on when, why, and how he came to write (or rewrite) each one.

For more than thirty-five years, Stephen King has dazzled readers with his genius as a writer of short fiction. In this collection, he introduces each story with a passage about its origins or his motivations for writing it.

As Entertainment Weekly said about this collection: “Bazaar of Bad Dreams is bursting with classic King terror, but what we love most are the thoughtful introductions he gives to each tale that explain what was going on in his life as he wrote 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. In “Afterlife,” a man who died of colon cancer 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. Others 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, 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.

“I made these stories especially for you,” says King. “Feel free to examine them, but please be careful. The best of them have teeth.”

Many of the stories were great, and most of the performances were fantastic. It was interesting to hear all the different styles, all matched well with the story.

My favourite was Er/Ur I believe it was called about the Kindle, very engaging and I can always listen to anything that ties to the Tower. Very happy I gave this one a shot

A Fantastic Compilation

There’s more than one here that really get you down deep. Very well written and some very disturbing. Caught myself getting drug down into disbelief more than once during this listen.

Draws you right in.

I don’t know how this book sat in my library without me realizing it’s short stories, I love King’s short stories and novelettes. Edward Hermann, Mare Winningham and Will Patton are my favourite readers. Great stories.

Who doesn’t love a book of King short stories?!

Loved listening to all the different readers. Love short stories from Mr King! All as great as his loooong stories. Worth a listen.

Classics!

this is a very diverse collection of King's shorts stories, as such there is a few that I did not I think were as great. All the narrators are fairly good with some, like Patton, standing out. the intros by King are great for getting some backstory. overall as with any selection by King you won't be disappointed buying this.

I would love to see Cookie Jar made into a novel!! I know Mr King would knock it out of this world!

some great short stories

Sorry Mr. King, I've really enjoyed some of your earlier works. This however is beyond long, drawn out and boring. Even when I make it through a story, the ending is like sex without the 'hqppy ending'...so disappointing. I quit 1/2 way throughy the book...time is far too valuable to keep trying.

How boring these stories are.

really enjoyed the numerous narrators throughout this audiobook. the stories however really left me cold for the most part. I don't like stories that end leaving you asking, WTF?
and many of the stories in this group definitely left me scratching my head. I believe I will stick with his full-length novels.

Not Thrilled

This is the worst Stephen King collection I’ve ever read! Only one story stood out, the rest were boring and non conclusive!

Awful!
