Stephen King: America's Storyteller de Professor or Dr. Tony Magistrale

Stephen King: America's Storyteller: Universul Stephen King

Autor Professor or Dr. Tony Magistrale
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 dec 2009 – vârsta până la 17 ani

Un studiu asupra evoluției scriitorului Stephen King de la un tânăr aspirant la unul dintre cei mai populari autori din istoria literaturii. 
Marea majoritate a titlurilor din bibliografia lui Stephen King sunt discutate aici și reamintim de The Shining, The Stand, IT, Dolores Claiborne și seria The Dark Tower. 
Tony Magistrale se concentrează pe experiența americană care transcede în fiecare carte scrisă de King exemplificată de claritatea și acuratețea istorică a evenimentelor și referințelor, galeria de prietenii obișnuite care nu țin cont de diferențe rasiale, sociale și instinctul de supraviețuire cu care scriitorul își caracterizează personajele.

Descriere scurtă

"Stephen King: America's Storyteller" explores the particular American-ness of Stephen King's work. It is the first major examination to follow this defining theme through King's 40-year career, from his earliest writings to his most recent novels and films made from them.

"Stephen King" begins by tracing Stephen King's rise from his formative years to his status as a one of the most popular writers in publishing history. It then takes a close look at the major works from his canon, including "The Shining," "The Stand," "It," "Dolores Claiborne," and "The Dark Tower." In these works and others, author Tony Magistrale focuses on King's deep rooted sense of the American experience, exemplified by his clear-eyed presentation of our historical and cultural foibles and scars; his gallery of unlikely friendships that cross race, age, and class boundaries; and his transcendent portrayals of uniquely American survival instincts, fellowship, and acts of heroism from the least likely of sources.
