Notes : | Different Seasons (1982) is a collection of four Stephen King novellas with a more dramatic bend, rather than the horror fiction for which King is famous. The four novellas are tied together via subtleties that relate to each of the four seasons. The collection is notable for having nearly all of its novellas turned into Hollywood films, one of which, The Shawshank Redemption, was nominated for the 1994 Academy Award for Best Picture.
At the ending of the book, there is also a brief afterword, which King wrote on January 4, 1982. In it, he explains why he had not previously submitted the novellas (each written at a different time) for publication. Early in his career, his agents and editors expressed concern that he would be "written off" as someone who only wrote horror. However, his horror novels turned out to be quite popular and made him much in demand as a novelist. Conversely, the novellas, which did not deal (primarily) with the supernatural, were very difficult to publish as there was not a mass market for "straight" fiction stories in the 25,000- to 35,000-word format. Thus, King and his editor conceived the idea of publishing the novellas together as "something different", hence the title of the book.
The novellas featured in this collection are:
- Rita Hayworth And Shawshank Redemption
- Apt Pupil
- The Body
- The Breathing Method | Edition number is not mentioned on the book.
For this Finnish edition, Different Seasons was published as two separate books. This book is part 2, and features the following novellas:
- Ruumis (The Body)
- Hengitystekniikka (The Breathing Method) | |
Description (by producer & GT in English only) : | | Kaksi mestarillista romaania kauhun kuninkaalta - toisessa tapahtuma-aikana synkeä syksy, toisessa tuivertava talvi. Oli vuodenaika mikä tahansa, Kingin käsittelyssä lukijan karvat nousevat pystyyn... ja uneton yö on taattu!
Suotta ei Stephen King ole maailman luetuin kirjailija! | |
