Der zwölfjährige Jack ist verzweifelt. Seine Mutter liegt im Sterben und zudem werden sie von Morgan Sloat gejagt, dem Erzfeind seines verstorbenen Vaters. Da entdeckt Jack, dass eine Parallelwelt existiert, die seiner ganz ähnlich, jedoch magisch ist. Beinahe jeder Mensch hat in dieser Welt ein Gegenstück, einen »Twinner«. Jacks Twinner ist schon früh verstorben, aber dessen Mutter, die Königin dieser Parallelwelt, liegt auch im Sterben. Zudem bedroht das Gegenstück von Morgan Sloat die Existenz der gesamten »Territorien«, wie jene andere Welt heißt. Jack erfährt, dass nur ein magischer Talisman alle retten kann. Er begibt sich auf die Suche, sowohl in den USA als auch in den Territorien. Zwischen beiden Welten kann er durch das sogenannte »Flippen« wechseln.

It is the story of Jack Sawyer who first travelled between America and the Territories to save his mother's life as a twelve-year-old boy. Many years later, as a retired policeman, he returns to face a serial killer. Now, he must undertake a dangerous journey, to stop both a rampaging gang of infected teenagers from America-side and the forces of the mysterious Gullet at the edge of Mid-World before they destroy our world and all worlds. But Jack is older, his band of pilgrims, his ka-tet, is fraying and his task is nearly impossible. OTHER WORLDS THAN THESE is magnificent, riveting and full of heart.

O talismã

Autor: Peter Straub , Stephen King

Número de Páginas: 746

Jack Sawyer tem apenas 12 anos, mas está prestes a iniciar uma grande viagem: a busca implacável por um talismã. Assim, sai de Arcadia Beach, em New Hampshire, para cruzar duas dimensões — os Estados Unidos e o universo paralelo dos Territórios. Mas como chegar a este lugar que não pode ser alcançado de modo comum? Em que plano da existência se situa esse mundo tão intrigante quanto a Atlântida? Jack vence estes mistérios quando adentra os Territórios, mas logo percebe, para seu absoluto terror, que lá a vida pode ser extinta em segundos pela constante batalha entre o bem e o mal. Nessa região fantástica, Jack descobre os "Duplos", reflexos das pessoas que conhece em seu mundo. É o caso da Rainha Laura, Duplo de sua mãe que, assim como ela, está à beira da morte. De maneira geral, grandes acontecimentos a um habitante da Terra são reproduzidos por seus Duplos, mas Jack logo perceberá que há exceções a essa regra. Principalmente quando uma misteriosa criatura lhe ensina a circular entre os dois mundos. "O talismã" é uma inesquecível saga de aventura e triunfo, e um dos romances de fantasia mais aclamados da literatura contemporânea.

Theorizing Stephen King

Autor: Michael Blouin

Número de Páginas: 314

Readers of all stripes will find something to appreciate in this collection, which illuminates how King’s horror literature as a media form has shifted in relation to cultural understandings over time. Many chapters touch upon how surrounding texts, such as film/TV adaptations, have played into these mediations throughout King’s storied career. For the first-time reader of King, this volume offers a doorway into his works: an array of exciting critical frameworks with which to make sense of King’s fictional universe. For literary critics, this volume argues that King’s corpus remains a site for robust intellectual inquiry. And for all of us, the book provides an occasion—one that is long overdue—to rethink King’s relationship to critical theory as well as his legacy as a major American author. While it may prove impossible to reconcile King and the academy, we might nonetheless explore the evolution of their inescapable bond in hopes of negotiating a greater understanding between them.
