Stephen King: Lisey's Story (USA 2021) From the Publisher: Lisey lost her husband Scott after a twenty-five-year marriage of profound and sometimes frightening intimacy. Scott was an award-winning, bestselling novelist and a very complicated man. Early in their relationship, before they married, Lisey knew there was a place Scott visited -- a place that both terrified and healed him, could eat him alive or give him the ideas he needed in order to live and create. Now, two years after Scott's death, it's Lisey's turn to face his demons, to go to that terrifying place known as Boo'ya Moon. What begins as a widow's effort to sort through the vast papers of her celebrated husband becomes a nearly fatal journey into the darkness he inhabited. "Intricate... exhilarating" (The New Yorker), perhaps Stephen King's most personal and powerful novel ever, Lisey's Story is about the wellsprings of creativity, the temptations of madness, and the secret language of love. It is a beautiful, "rich portrait of a marriage, and the complicated affection that outlives death" (The Washington Post). Stephen King: Lisey's Story. A Novel. Pocket Books, ISBN: 9781982147792 (June, 2021), 544 p., $18.00.
