Quand Stephen King se décide à écrire sur son métier et sur sa vie, un brutal accident de la route met en péril l'un et l'autre. Durant sa convalescence, le romancier découvre les liens toujours plus forts entre l'écriture et la vie. Résultat : ce livre hors norme et génial, tout à la fois essai sur la création littéraire et récit autobiographique. Mais plus encore révélation de cette alchimie qu'est l'inspiration. Une fois encore Stephen King montre qu'il est bien plus qu'un maître du thriller : un immense écrivain.

Work Description

On Writing is both a textbook for writers and a memoir of Stephen's life and will, thus, appeal even to those who are not aspiring writers. If you've always wondered what led Steve to become a writer and how he came to be the success he is today, this will answer those questions.

Excerpts

In the early ninties (it might have been 1992, but it's hard to remember when you're having a good time) I joined a rock and roll band composed mostly of writers.
