About Full Dark, No Stars: Novellas
“The pages practically turn themselves” (USA TODAY) in this collection of four “disturbing, fascinating” (The Washington Post) novellas centered around the theme of retribution from the #1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King. “1922” (also a Netflix original film): A violence awakens inside a man when his wife proposes selling off the family homestead, setting in motion a grisly train of murder and madness. “Big Driver”: A mystery writer is brutally assaulted by a stranger along a Massachusetts back road and plots a revenge that will bring her face-to-face with another stranger: the one inside herself. “Fair Extension”: Making a deal with the devil not only saves a man from terminal illness but also provides rich recompense for a lifetime of resentment. “A Good Marriage”: The trust forged by more than twenty years of matrimony is irrevocably shattered when a woman makes a chance discovery leading to the horrifying implications of just who her husband really is. Like the #1 bestselling novella collections Different Seasons and Four Past Midnight, Stephen King’s Full Dark, No Stars is “gripping storytelling” (People) and “an extraordinary collection, thrillingly merciless, and a career high point” (The Daily Telegraph, London).
