About Stephen King

No. 1 bestselling author Stephen King is an acclaimed master of novels and short stories. His collection The Bazaar of Bad Dreams received excellent reviews, with his story ‘Obits’ winning the Edgar Award for Best Short Story:

‘King can sketch a full-blooded character in just a few pen strokes. This gift comes to the fore in his short stories, where every syllable counts’

Sunday Telegraph

‘Short stories have a famous place in the King oeuvre, with the likes of The Body and Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption finding second lives on the big screen as Stand By Me and The Shawshank Redemption . . . Like all the greats, though, his ability to grip the reader’s mind, body and soul with his prose makes it all look easy’
