About this product
Product Information
Soon to be a limited series starring Julianne Moore From the acclaimed #1 New York Times and undisputed King of Horror Stephen King, comes the story of a writer's widow who must confront his demons after his death-- Lisey's Story is about the wellsprings of creativity, the temptation of madness, and the secret language of love. Lisey Debusher Landon lost her husband Scott two years ago, after a twenty-five year marriage of the most profound and sometimes frightening intimacy. Lisey knew there was a place Scott went--a place that both terrified and healed him, could eat him alive or give him the ideas he needed in order to live. Now it's Lisey's turn to face Scott's demons, Lisey's turn to go to that terrifying place known as Boo'ya Moon. What begins as a widow's effort to sort through the papers of her celebrated husband becomes a nearly fatal journey into the darkness he inhabited. Perhaps King's most personal and powerful novel ever, Lisey's Story is about the wellspings of creativity, the temptations of madness, and the secret language of love.Product Identifiers

Reviews"MOVING. . . . A rich portrait of a marriage and the complicated affection that outlives death."-- "The Washington Post", "DAZZLING. . . . Stephen King at his finest and most generous."-- Nicholas Sparks, author of At First Sight and The Notebook, "HAUNTING. . . . A tender, intimate book that makes an epic interior journey."-- "The New York Times", "In "Lisey's Story," Stephen King makes bold, brilliant use of his satanic storytelling gift, his angelic ear for language, and above all his incomparable ability to find the epic in the ordinary, to present us with the bloody and fabulous tale of an ordinary marriage. In his hands the long, passionate union of Scott and Lisey Landon--of any long-lived marriage, by implication--becomes a fantastic kingdom, with its own geography and language, its dark and stirring chronicle of heroes and monsters, its tragedies, griefs and glories. King has been getting me to look at the world with terror and wonder since I was fifteen years old, and I have never been more persuaded than by this book of his greatness."-- Michael Chabon, author of "The Final Solution: A Story of Detection" and "The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay", "Haunting. . . . a Tender, Intimate Book That Makes an Epic Interior JOURNEY." -- the NY Times, "MOVING. . . . A rich portrait of a marriage and the complicated affection that outlives death."-- The Washington Post, "DAZZLING. . . . Stephen King at his finest and most generous."-- Nicholas Sparks, author ofAt First SightandThe Notebook, "MOVING. . . . A rich portrait of a marriage and the complicated affection that outlives death." -- The Washington Post, ""Lisey's Story" is a wondrous novel of marriage, a love story steeped in strength and tenderness, and cast with the most vivid, touching and believable characters in recent literature. I came to adore Lisey Landon and her sisters, I ached for Scott and all he'd been through, and when I finally reached the bittersweet and heartfelt conclusion, my first thought was that I wanted to start over again from the beginning, for it felt as if I were saying good-bye to old friends. This is Stephen King at his finest and most generous, a dazzling novel that you'll thank yourself for reading long after the final page is turned."-- Nicholas Sparks, author of "The Notebook", "DAZZLING. . . .
