Оно. Том 1. Тень прошлого (It
В маленьком провинциальном городке Дерри много лет назад семерым подросткам пришлось столкнуться с кромешным ужасом – живым воплощением ада. Прошли годы… Подростки повзрослели, и ничто, казалось, не предвещало новой беды. Но кошмар прошлого вернулся, неведомая сила повлекла семерых друзей назад, в новую битву со Злом. Ибо в Дерри опять льется кровь и бесследно исчезают люди. Ибо вернулось порождение ночного кошмара, настолько невероятное, что даже не имеет имени…

About the author
Stephen King
2,413 books887k followersStephen Edwin King was born the second son of Donald and Nellie Ruth Pillsbury King. After his father left them when Stephen was two, he and his older brother, David, were raised by his mother. Parts of his childhood were spent in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where his father's family was at the time, and in Stratford, Connecticut. When Stephen was eleven, his mother brought her children back to Durham, Maine, for good. Her parents, Guy and Nellie Pillsbury, had become incapacitated with old age, and Ruth King was persuaded by her sisters to take over the physical care of them. Other family members provided a small house in Durham and financial support. After Stephen's grandparents passed away, Mrs. King found work in the kitchens of Pineland, a nearby residential facility for the mentally challenged.
Stephen attended the grammar school in Durham and Lisbon Falls High School, graduating in 1966. From his sophomore year at the University of Maine at Orono, he wrote a weekly column for the school newspaper, THE MAINE CAMPUS. He was also active in student politics, serving as a member of the Student Senate. He came to support the anti-war movement on the Orono campus, arriving at his stance from a conservative view that the war in Vietnam was unconstitutional. He graduated in 1970, with a B.A. in English and qualified to teach on the high school level. A draft board examination immediately post-graduation found him 4-F on grounds of high blood pressure, limited vision, flat feet, and punctured eardrums.
He met Tabitha Spruce in the stacks of the Fogler Library at the University, where they both worked as students; they married in January of 1971. As Stephen was unable to find placement as a teacher immediately, the Kings lived on his earnings as a laborer at an industrial laundry, and her student loan and savings, with an occasional boost from a short story sale to men's magazines.
Stephen made his first professional short story sale ("The Glass Floor") to Startling Mystery Stories in 1967. Throughout the early years of his marriage, he continued to sell stories to men's magazines. Many were gathered into the Night Shift collection or appeared in other anthologies.
In the fall of 1971, Stephen began teaching English at Hampden Academy, the public high school in Hampden, Maine. Writing in the evenings and on the weekends, he continued to produce short stories and to work on novels.

Не смотря на то, что основным составным ужасом должен являться, по сути, клоун, обычные люди пугали меня намного больше. Первый том заканчивается на описание пожара, устроенным обычными людьми, и ни в одном описании Пеннивайза, тут пока мы еще не знаки что именно так его зовут, мне не было так жутко и плохо как при описании того что мы сами с собой творим.
Книга очень многогранна и тут описываются очень много актуальных, или уже менее актуальных проблем как Америки так и обычных людей и обычной жизни.
Роман этот - это целая Вселенная и я считаю что Кинга можно ставить наравне с такими классиками фанатической литературы как Толкин ибо он создает вымышленные мира, вымышленных людей но переплетает их с историй и с проблемами которые касаются нас, так умело и искусно что кажется будто Кинг некий бог, ну или в малом летописец других, параллельных нам вселенных.
Книга очень липкая, тягучая и большинство времени очень мерзкая.
Не могу назвать ее книгой ужасов, по крайней мере том. Когда я думаю о книгах ужасах, мне приходят в голову совсем другие мотивы, это скорее какая то эпопея о группе детей с элементами ужасов и да, второстепенный герой в виде злого клоуна скорее идет как некий символ грехов людских.

Люблю Кинга и просто обожаю "Тёмную башню" и "Побег из Шоушенка", но ужасы — всё-таки, не моё. Не хочется потом просыпаться от кошмаров :P
