Stephen King: A Biography

Now known worldwide for his horror creations in best-selling books and popular film adaptations, Stephen King spent years in obscurity trying to find his voice and his audience. For much of his career he chose to remain in the small-town Maine of his youth, far from glittering publishing and film centers, yet few American writers can now equal his hold on audiences worldwide. This biography traces King's evolution from would-be pulp magazine writer to master of his craft, whose work both epitomizes and transcends the horror genre.Primary source bibliography of Stephen King's novels, fiction collections, and nonfiction, including his work under the pseudonym Richard Bachman Exhaustive A-to-Z bibliography of books and articles about King and his work, including online resources and a list of Web sites devoted to King Photographs of King at different stages of his career
