Interrupting Owen Meany to read this because I cannot wait to watch the movie and wanted a refresher since it’s been a minute. This is one of my favorite SK short stories. But woof, it is a teeny bit dated, a whole lot corny, but still has a lot of fabulous tension and suspense.

I love SK. He is my literary hero for building full, red-blooded human beings that feel so real that you believe the unreal circumstances he puts them in. But god, in early works he throws the N word around like confetti (always by the bad guys but still it makes my spine curl) and women are usually written…not well. To quote Monty Python he got better! (Dolores Claiborne is a masterpiece) but big yikes for 1979
