Urmând conceptul de poveste în poveste, cartea îl are în prim-plan pe același Roland Deschain aflat în căutarea Turnului Întunecat.
Povestind o întâmplare din primele sale zile de pistolar, Roland scoate la iveală adevăruri de mult îngropate sub pecetea tăcerii.
Trimis de tatăl său să investigheze dovezile despre un criminal care își poate schimba înfățișarea, Roland ia in grijă un băiat terifiat, dar curajos pe nume Bill Streeter care este singurul supraviețuitor al masacrului comis de ciudatul criminal.
Roland fiind doar un adolescent îi citește băiatului o poveste pe care mama lui obișnuia să i-o citească. Povestea se numește The Wind Through The Keyhole.

Like
John
Steinbeck,
he's
an
unfussy
writer
whose
voice
is
rooted
equally
in
the
rhythms
of

speech
and
the
mythic
made
manifest
in
everyday
life.
Indeed,
reading
King,
you
often
sense
the
presence
of
the
dustbowl
America
of
The
Grapes
of
Wrath
...
a
King
novel
has
a
sparse
elegance
that
most
novelists
never
achieve
in
a
whole
career.
Put
it
down
to
the
insistent,
