Praise for The Life of Chuck and King's Short Fiction "I was blown away -- it's heart-warming and relatable...and one of the warmest and most uplifting things King's ever written." --Mark Hamill " The Life of Chuck is one of the oddest, most affecting stories I have read in a very long time." --Ruth Franklin, New York Times Book Review "Phenomenal... Just when you think things are getting really weird, it all snaps together like an epiphany and you get to the gorgeous meat of the matter." --Brian Truitt, USA Today "A slightly surreal, wholly engaging narrative about dance, music, mortality and acceptance, and about the bedrock notion that all of us, like Chuck, contain multitudes." --Bill Sheehan, The Washington Post "For a writer whose books need a big stage, Stephen King also can turn out shorter stories just as gripping as his epic novels." --Amanda St. Amand, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Praise for The Life of Chuck and King's Short Fiction " The Life of Chuck is one of the oddest, most affecting stories I have read in a very long time." --Ruth Franklin, New York Times Book Review "Phenomenal...

Synopsis
Stephen King's "The Life of Chuck," is a "phenomenal" ( USA TODAY ) tale of life and legacy--now a feature film directed by Mike Flanagan and starring Tom Hiddleston, Mark Hamill, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Karen Gillan--available for the first time in a beautiful stand-alone edition with a new introduction by Stephen King and a design surprise . Originally featured in the acclaimed story collection If It Bleeds , this unforgettable, mind-bending tale unfolds in reverse, taking readers through the extraordinary life of Charles "Chuck" Krantz. In a crumbling world plagued by natural disasters, collapsing infrastructure, and mass panic, bizarre billboards and advertisements appear throughout town: "Charles Krantz. Thirty-nine great years. Thanks, Chuck!" Marty Anderson, a schoolteacher, becomes obsessed with these messages as the world, inexplicably linked to Chuck's life, seems to be approaching its end. Told in three acts, presented in reverse order, The Life of Chuck explores one man's past. We see him in middle age on a business trip in Boston as he is seduced by a busker into spinning a gorgeous sidewalk dance. And we see him as a child, in a house haunted by a terrible secret, learning to dance with his grandmother. In these pages King reminds us that life's quotidian pleasures are even more glorious because they are fleeting: the outrageous good fortune of a beautiful blue day after a string of gray ones; the delight of dancing when every move feels perfect; a serendipitous meeting. King's ability to describe pure joy rivals his ability to terrify us. Now a major motion picture and winner of the Toronto International Film Festival People's Choice Award, The Life of Chuck is a glorious story about community and about humanity at its best, a celebration of joy, mystery, existential wonder, and the multitudes contained in all of us., Stephen King's "The Life of Chuck" is a "phenomenal" ( USA TODAY ) tale of life and legacy--now a feature film directed by Mike Flanagan and starring Tom Hiddleston, Mark Hamill, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Karen Gillan--available for the first time in a beautiful stand-alone edition with a new introduction by Stephen King and a design surprise .
