by James Arthur Anderson (Author)
This book explores the techniques, themes, and subtexts in the fictional works of one of America's best-known and most-loved storytellers, Stephen King. Each of King's novels are analyzed in chronological order of their publication from Carrie to Holly. Every novel's analysis includes a background and summary, narrative devices, archetypes that influenced the novel, themes and subtexts, human universals, interesting facts, and notable quotes. As an invaluable resource for any Stephen King "Constant Reader" and students of literature in general, this work appreciates the beauty of King's fiction without needing to master the jargon of contemporary literary criticism.
