About this deal

The emotions that the author evoked were deep and the ending will have you pondering for a certain long time. The Body is special, though, because it is so of summer, and what it means to kids: King’s kid characters here are spot-on, and he inhabits the spirit of childhood a’la Ray Bradbury.

The body یکی از بهترین داستان‌های Coming of ageهست که تا حالا نوشته شده، شاید خیلی از مردم از دور استیون کینگ رو با کتاب‌های وحشتی که نوشته بشناسن اما به نظر من رسالت کینگ نوشتن داستان‌های Coming of ageه، کاری که کینگ توی ۱۹۴ صفحه این کتاب انجام داده خیلی‌ از نویسنده‌ها در هزاران صفحه هم نمی‌تونند انجام بدن. In the fall of 1971, Stephen began teaching English at Hampden Academy, the public high school in Hampden, Maine.

In “The Body,” four rambunctious young boys plunge through the façade of a small town and come face-to-face with life, death, and intimations of their own mortality. Adapted into the 1986 classic film Stand By Me, The Body is an iconic exploration of friendship, loneliness and adventure, an unforgettable coming-of-age story by master chronicler of small-town adolescence and universal experience, Stephen King. One of the most bizarre features of this novella was that it contains two short stories written by an older version of the protagonist and both were fairly unpleasant and seemingly unnecessary. When I was a kid I hung out with about 6 girls and we just knew we would be friends forever but by sophomore year I was only still friends with 3 and as an adult I'm only friends with 1. Her parents, Guy and Nellie Pillsbury, had become incapacitated with old age, and Ruth King was persuaded by her sisters to take over the physical care of them.

Everyone in the group is wary of crossing the bridge lest a train come along but Teddy insists they can make the crossing safely and not have to walk five miles upstream to the nearest bridge.

Set in fictional Castlerock, Maine, this Coming-of-Age story is told in the first-person POV of Gordie LaChance, who. Parts of his childhood were spent in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where his father's family was at the time, and in Stratford, Connecticut. The moments in which only a child will feel afraid, because only a child has the imagination for it.

Carrie, which takes place over ten years later but was written eight years earlier, features a reference to a Teddy Duchamp, but he is clearly not the same person as the Teddy of the novella.

There's a familiarity to his stories that speaks to the reader in some sort of nostalgicy, twisted way. Many of his titles are the basis for major motion pictures including IT , Stand By Me (adapted from The Body ) and The Shawshank Redemption , which is IMDb's top-rated movie of all time. The older kids decided not to report it because they didn't want to get in trouble for their own mischief. No need to be wary, for there is little gore, but enough language that some readers may want to look elsewhere.

Come down the travelators, exit Sainsbury's, turn right and follow the pedestrianised walkway to Crown Walk and turn right - and Coles will be right in front of you.As the boys to begin their summer trek, they must come together to face winding train tracks, a brief dip in an interesting water hole, and a great deal of self-discovery. Stephen King’s short story “The Body”—which became the film Stand By Me —from the collection Different Seasons is now an Encore stand-alone CD.
