Description
Haunting us with such unforgettable stories as The Shining, The Shawshank Redemption, Salems Lot, Carrie, The Green Mile, and Pet Sematary, Stephen King has been an anchor of American horror, science fiction, psychological thrillers, and suspense for more than forty years. His characters have brought chills to our spines and challenged our notions of reality while leaving us in awe of the perseverance of the human spirit. The first book in the new Great Authors and Philosophy series, Stephen King and Philosophy reveals some of the deeper issues raised by Kings work. From retribution, freedom, and moral relativity, to death and insanity, the chapters of this book expose how Kings stories access the questions and fears that haunt each of us in the middle of the night.
