About the book: 2017 / This is the tradition: every few years - sometimes five, and sometimes seven - Stephen King publishes a new collection of works "small prose." Most often these are short stories, but sometimes there are four (necessarily four!) stories. This was the case with “Four Seasons,” which included the legendary “Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption.” This was the case with the book “Four After Midnight” with its famous “Langoliers.” “Darkness - and Nothing More” is another collection of four stories that has won the love of readers around the world: “1922” is a story that critics have already called one of King's best short works. A farmer who killed his wife for a hundred acres of land understands that retribution will come... "The Brute" is a merciless story about the lengths a woman can go to take revenge on a rapist... "Happy Marriage" is a brilliant, original variation of the "eternal" tale of Bluebeard ... “On Favorable Terms” is an amazing work in which King again raises the theme of a deal with the devil, which has repeatedly amazed readers. Bonus! Stephen King's gift to his most devoted fans is the story “Ill Health,” which the Master included in the reissue of the collection. For the first time in Russian!
