 Great book! SK always brings it home to me!!  Sometimes, you hardly know where to begin. And so it is with "Duma Key," latest in a gloriously long line of tales from the uber-popular Stephen King. There are bad accidents, and there are horrible accidents, and horror novelist Stephen King knows about the worst kind. Stephen King’s “Duma Key” ventures to an all-but-uninhabited Florida island where the shells groan at high tide, tennis balls appear unexpectedly, foliage grows ominously quickly, and at least one heron flies upside-down. Given this combination of author and setting, it’s inevitable that something terribly undead will show up before the book is over.  When Stephen King wrote Misery in 1987, making the hero a writer was an unusual departure for him. Recently, however, centring his novels on creative types has become a habit. In Cell, the protagonist is a comic-book artist. Lisey’s Story involves a dead author whose widow struggles to protect his legacy. And Duma Key’s narrator, Edgar Freemantle, is a painter whose work gives him paranormal powers – to know everything about people hundreds of miles away, to predict events, even to heal or kill someone.

Unas pinturas de sorprendente fuerza y maestría podrían estar inspiradas en una terrible maldición... Tras sufrir un grave accidente, la vida del constructor millonario Edgard Fremantle cambia radicalmente. Ha perdido un brazo, se separa de su mujer y decide trasladarse a Duma Key para dedicarse a pintar. El paisaje de este cayo en Florida, con viejas casonas y una vegetación tropical, y la extraña propietaria de la isla desatan en Edgar una fiebre creadora sobrenatural: los paisajes surrealistas, los mares embravecidos y las muñecas que dibuja parecen formar parte de un aterrador mensaje de ad No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

October 2013’s SK Flavor of the Month – Duma Key

Cell y 14 relatos no le llegan ni a los talones. Después del anochecer, Historia de Lisey y Blaze no los leí, todavía.
De terror...no tanto. No es El Resplandor, ni Cementerio de Animales.
Pero te atrapa y te guía como ninguno. (
