Vezi toate premiile Carte premiată
Împărțindu-și averea în patru părți: una pentru fosta lui soție, câte o parte pentru fiecare din fiicele lui și una pentru el, Edgar Freemantle pleacă din Minnesota și se mută în Duma Key, o frumoasă zonă de pe coasta Floridei unde închiriază o casă.
Pământurile de aici sunt în proprietatea lui Elizabeth Eastlake, o octogenară al cărei tragic și misterios trecut se dezvăluie încetul cu încetul.
Când Edgar începe să picteze, talentul său formidabil pare să vină dintr-un loc străin și cele mai multe dintre tablourile lui capată o putere care nu poate fi controlată.

Descriere
NO MORE THAN A DARK PENCIL LINE ON A BLANK PAGE. A HORIZON LINE, MAYBE.BUT ALSO A SLOT FOR BLACKNESS TO POUR THROUGH...
A terrible accident takes Edgar Freemantle's right arm and scrambles his memory and his mind, leaving him with little but rage as he begins the ordeal of rehabilitation. When his marriage suddenly ends, Edgar begins to wish he hadn't survived his injuries. He wants out. His psychologist suggests a new life distant from the Twin Cities, along with something else:
" "Edgar, does anything make you happy?"
"I used to sketch."
"Take it up again. You need hedges...hedges against the night." "
Edgar leaves for Duma Key, an eerily undeveloped splinter of the Florida coast. The sun setting into the Gulf of Mexico calls out to him, and Edgar draws. Once he meets Elizabeth Eastlake, a sick old woman with roots tangled deep in Duma Key, Edgar begins to paint, sometimes feverishly; many of his paintings have a power that cannot be controlled. When Elizabeth's past unfolds and the ghosts of her childhood begin to appear, the damage of which they are capable is truly devastating.
The tenacity of love, the perils of creativity, the mysteries of memory and the nature of the supernatural -- Stephen King gives us a novel as fascinating as it is gripping and terrifying.
