Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. Read as part of the Hugo Voters' Packet. I've long been of the opinion the King is at his best when writing short stories, and this is a classic example of a King short. Seriously, it could've been presented completely anonymously, and anyone would've said, "Yeah, definitely by Stephen King." A nerdy writer makes a living (barely) writing snarky celebrity obituaries for a gossip website (think Perez Hilton or TMZ). His column is wildly popular, but all he wants is a raise, so he can make enough to finally move out of his parents' place before he turns 40. But his nasty boss refuses. As a way of getting his angst out of his system, he writes one of his trademark spiteful obits about her. What happens then is quite a shock to him - but it's only the beginning. I really enjoyed this horror story on its own merits, but it's really not in the appropriate genre for a Hugo award. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
