Christopher Snow suffers from a rare genetic disorder - xeroderma pigmentosum - which means his skin and eyes cannot be exposed to sunlight, so his life begins at midnight. Set in the town of Moonlight Bay, a place of picturesque beauty and haunting strangeness, FEAR NOTHING is a startling and compulsive masterpiece of tension.

Exhaustive detailing of early 1970s popular culture in suburban New England sets the stage for a tale of the American nuclear family in decline. The affluent WASP community of New Canaan, Conn., is home to the Hood and Williams families, whose two-parent, two-child households are increasingly dysfunctional. Benjamin Hood, struggling with a loss of importance at work and a growing drinking problem, embarks on an ill-fated affair with Janey Williams, while his wife, Elena, feels her regard for him dwindling. Meanwhile, the adolescents of both families experiment with sex, alcohol, and drugs to forge identities and combat a profound sense of alienation. A neighborhood "key party," where couples exchange partners by drawing keys from a bowl, leads to a chaotic climax as an apocalyptic winter storm brings physical tragedy that mirrors the emotional turmoil within the community. Pop-cultural references from the era, such as Hush Puppies and the film Billy Jack, permeate the narrative. While Moody, a Pushcart Press Editors' Book Award winner for his first novel, tends to present these details in an encyclopedic manner, his portrayal of the families is insightful and convincing, delving into their thoughts and fears. The central tragedy remains resonant, though his critique of cultural decline feels somewhat stale.

V jedno popoludnie odchádzajú manželia Burlinghamovci do svojho letného domu pri jazere. Je už po sezóne a na okolí niet ani živej duše. No to, čo sa začína ako tichá idylka manželov v strednom veku, nachádzajúcich potešenie v nezvyčajných vypätých erotických dobrodružstvách, sa končí traumatizujúcim bojom opustenej ženy o prežitie. Americký autor Stephen King neostáva ani v tomto románe nič dlžný svojej povesti majstra hororu, napätia a nezvyčajných zvratov.

Een man, die is opgegroeid temidden van de mafiosi in Atlantic City, probeert vergeefs zich daaraan te ontworstelen.

Dolores Claiborneová žije na vesnici na malém ostrově Little Tall a těžce si vydělává na živobytí jako hospodyně u bohaté Very Donovanové, která tam každoročně jezdí na letní sezónu do svého domu. Přizpůsobivá Dolores si zvyká i na Veřinu panovačnost a obě ženy spolu časem začnou poměrně dobře vycházet. Když stará a nemocná Vera po letech zemře a odkáže veškerý majetek Dolores, vesničané si myslí, že ji Dolores zabila. Ta v poutavé zpovědi na policii vraždu Very odmítá, ale při výslechu vyjdou najevo jiné temné okolnosti z pohnutého života hlavní hrdinky. Neuvěřitelně poutavý Kingův román, psaný jako monolog životem pronásledované ženy, se tak trochu vymyká ostatní Kingově tvorbě. Obvyklé tajemno tu zastupuje pouze zatmění Slunce, které sehrálo v příběhu významnou roli.

Biografie van de Amerikaanse rock & roll zanger en acteur Elvis Aaron Presley (1935-1977).

It's the eve of the 20th-century's final conflict. But Stan Potts is ready for Armageddon. In his Austin Champ, specially equipped with his own unique survival kit, he heads for Corfe Castle, the Purbecks & the girl of his dreams. It's to be an eventful journey. This latest & most ambitious novel by Keith Roberts is both the story of one lonely man & a compulsively readable account of a civilisation's catastrophe & the clawing-up to a new social order. Across Potts' gaze pass the ravaged survivors; the mutant genius born outside his time; the villagers of the new stone age with their credulous, sexually complex lives; the iron age horsemen; the terror of the sea-borne marauders. Finally, after the pillage, the cruelty of superstition, the fragility of love & its horrific consequences, the story leaps from the Dark Ages into a new awareness & Stan Potts' tale is told. Dream or reality? Future or racial memory? Forecast or myth? Every reader will pass his own verdict on this uniquely challenging book. But all will agree that The Chalk Giants is 1st & last a stunning feat of story telling, a worthy successor to Pavane & The Boat of Fate by an acknowledged master of the genre.
