Stephen King's Lisey Landon is a widow sorting through the papers of a famous novelist husband, and what she finds pulls her back into memories she had deliberately buried.
Lisey's Story moves between grief in the present and the strange interior world her husband called Boo'ya Moon, mixing psychological suspense with fantasy and a long marriage remembered in close detail. The tension is built out of recollection rather than sudden shocks, which makes this one of the more intimate novels in King's catalogue, and the supernatural material stays tied to questions about creativity and loss.
This edition covers:
• A widow's search through the papers and private secrets of a celebrated writer
• A shifting narrative that crosses between memory and an imagined realm
• Themes of grief, creative obsession and a long marriage examined closely
• Suspense built on atmosphere and character rather than shock
Suited to readers of literary suspense and dark fantasy, this Hodder Books edition is available at Boipoka.
