À propos de cet audio

 "Has all of [King's] trademark tension, violence, and catharsis...Mare Winningham's portrayal of this character will stick with listeners long after the end." —Publishers Weekly

In the emotional aftermath of her baby's sudden death, Em starts running. Soon she runs from her husband, to the airport, down to the Florida Gulf and out to the loneliest stretch of Vermillion Key, where her father has offered the use of a conch shack he has kept there for years. Em keeps up her running—barefoot on the beach, sneakers on the road—and sees virtually no one. This is doing her all kinds of good, until one day she makes the mistake of looking into the driveway of a man named Pickering. Pickering also enjoys the privacy of Vermillion Key, but the young women he brings there suffer the consequences. Will Em be next?©2008 Stephen King; (P)2008 Simon and Schuster, Inc. Anthologies et nouvelles Fiction de genre Fiction littéraire Horreur Suspense Thrillers et romans à suspense

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Winningham relates the story with honesty and sincerity, capturing the melancholy and sadness that abounds in Em's mind. Her gripping delivery is the stuff that great performances are made of. Winningham brings the protagonist to life while still managing to capture the strong sense of foreboding that so often permeates King's tales....The result is a captivating experience sure to ignite the senses of the listener." - AudioFile, on The Gingerbread Girl

first of all, wonderful story. it's Stephen King, goes without saying. But since I listened to Lisey's Story, I keep wanting more reads by Mare Winningham. her performances are outstanding. She seems to effortlessly change her voice from man, to woman and to monster without sounding strained. she adds so very much to these audio books.

Stephen is great but wow, Mare!
