具體描述
Eerie twists of fate drive the four longish stories in King's first collection since Just After Sunset (2008). In "1922," a farmer murders his wife to retain the family land she hopes to sell, then watches his life unravel hideously as the consequences of the killing suggest a near-supernatural revenge. "Big Driver" tells of an otherwise ordinary woman who discovers her extraordinary capacity for retribution after she is raped and left for dead. "A Good Marriage" explores the aftermath of a wife's discovery of her milquetoast husband's sinister secret life, while "Fair Extension," the book's most disturbing story, follows the relationship between a man and the best friend on whom he preternaturally shifts all his bad luck and misfortune. As in Different Seasons (1982), King takes a mostly nonfantastic approach to grim themes. Now, as then, these tales show how a skilled storyteller with a good tale to tell can make unsettling fiction compulsively readable.

讀後感
记得小时候有篇模范作文，讲的是一个孩子脑海里有两个小人，勤奋的小人和懒惰的小人，每当孩子在做事情的时候，两个小人就会出现打架，最终勤奋的小人战胜了懒惰的小人。远在美国的作家斯蒂芬金在《暗夜无星》这部作品集里，也提到了类似的场景，他说“我相信每个人心里...
評分文/宋薇棠 不知为何，在关于斯蒂芬·金几部最重要的作品里，我至今记得的，只剩下《闪灵》中的只言片语：“那天回想起小时候，好像是最痛苦最没有希望的时代，又好像是所有痛苦都还没有到来的时代。”就像黎明将至的午夜，又似灰烬中的余烟，一切似乎还有希望，却又沉在黑暗里...
評分西方人自夸的宽恕在本书中是奢侈品，噢不，根本不存在。四个故事带给我们四个绝狠凶人。你犯我一尺？对不起，我还你一丈，你要比我死得更难看。 有趣的是书中的后记，金说明了他的灵感来源。这些故事的原型都是生活中的琐事，天知道金是怎么把它们和恐怖故事联系在一起的，他的...
評分我也不知道为什么，并没有觉得那些人有什么地方做的不对。或许是因为看书的过程中，我并没有头脑，也就没有了作为自己的判断。 所以到底是怎么回事呢？第一，大概因为我没有考虑结婚，目前也没有女友，所以《1922》和《大司机》似乎隔着一层纱；第二，我只是个想靠恐怖入眠的混...

A good marriage.
评分Love it! Ordinary people in extraordinary situations. Feels like it could very well happen to me.
评分A good marriage.
评分四篇比較扭麯的中篇小說，很久之前看的，忘瞭具體題目瞭。特彆喜歡那篇主角報復自己老朋友的故事。越是所謂“好朋友”就越容易成仇。本書就素質而論夠得上5星。但是現在評價，尤其是已經看過瞭最新的《11/22/63》，隻好委屈它一個4星瞭。
评分斯蒂芬金講起故事真是讓人欲罷不能。
