  • Digg(tweet) "Books:King of Horror" (October 06,1996, Monday)

What Is Stephen King Trying To Prove?

Stephen King citation 3

My third citation was in a novel by Stephen King called CELL. This book was published in 2006. For more information you can register online at simonsays.com. It also lets you know that the author lives in Maine with his wife Tabitha King and that he doesn't own a cell phone for some odd reason. In this book, just like the author the main character is from Maine. He wants to be able to take care of his family and once he thinks he's got his big break doing comedy he buys cell phones for him and the family. But that becomes a big mistake when he realizes his latest decent gesture could cause the lives of his loved ones.
