‘Salem’s Lot (English Edition)

3,49

With a stunning new cover look, King’s chilling classic of a small new England town about to be engulfed in terror.

Turn off the television – in fact, why don’t you turn off all the lights except for the one over your favourite chair? – and we’ll talk about vampires here in the dim. I think I can make you believe in them. Stephen King, from the Introduction.

‘Salem’s Lot is a small New England town with the usual quota of gossips, drinkers, weirdos and respectable folk. Of course there are tales of strange happenings – but not more than in any other town its size.

Ben Mears, a moderately successful writer, returns to the Lot to write a novel based on his early years, and to exorcise the terrors that have haunted him since childhood. The event he witnessed in the house now rented by a new resident. A newcomer with a strange allure. A man who causes Ben some unease as things start to happen: a child disappears, a dog is brutally killed – nothing unusual, except the list starts to grow.

Soon surprise will turn to bewilderment, bewilderment to confusion and finally to terror . . .

    Bella edizione Kindle
    Non mi soffermo sul libro, tanto conosciuto da rendere superflua ogni recensione. L’edizione Kindle merita un ottimo giudizio: belle (anche se pochine…) le fotografie, ottima la parte finale con le “deleted scenes” del manoscritto originale.

  2. Ricardo Urrego

    I didn’t like the end
    This was my third Stephen King’s book. I liked the plot, the construction of the characters and the narrative of the book. I felt the end of the story was quite mild, maybe even dull. I was expecting a emotion loaded end for this book. In general I recommend it.

  3. Angelo

  4. Bart

    contentissima dell’acquisto
    mi piace molto Stephen king e Salem’s lot è in assoluto il mio libro preferito. Conosco a memoria la versione in italiano (che ho letto tre volte) e il film (che seppure non un capolavoro trovo comunque ben fatto). Mi mancava solo la versione in lingua originale che ora ho:)

  6. Buster

    dracula
    Storia sui vampiri un po’ inflazionata, come attenuante prendiamo che lo ha scritto 50 anni fa … non il miglior king ma scorre bene. In inglese

  7. Nianax

    Buono
    Libro in lingua. Qualità della carta molto sottile ed alcune pagine sono un po’ sbiadite ma è usabile. Tutto sommato buono.

  8. R24

    Edizione tascabile
    Edizioni tascabile molto compatta stampata su carta riciclata. Non di qualità eccelsa

  9. JDL

    bought for my niece and its slightly smaller book than average size but excellent binding hard cover and art on front. recommended.

  10. Porfirio

    Es un libro algo cómodo para llevarlo de viaje, la verdad lo compre para no dejar de practicar el inglés ya que regularmente no lo hago, la trama es muy bueno.

  11. Jason
