In 1922, the details and descriptions are amazing。 Really makes you feel the dread and sickness every time。 As the story goes, the lines between reality and imagination, of sane retelling and increasing insanity, blur and you'll wonder more and more as to where those lines are and which side you're on with every sentence。 I truly enjoyed the movie and this book。 Well dark, creepy and beautifully executed。 In 1922, the details and descriptions are amazing。 Really makes you feel the dread and sickness every time。 As the story goes, the lines between reality and imagination, of sane retelling and increasing insanity, blur and you'll wonder more and more as to where those lines are and which side you're on with every sentence。 I truly enjoyed the movie and this book。 Well dark, creepy and beautifully executed。 。。。more

A pretty gruesome little tale which per King's note at the end was based on a true story。 A dispute over land ends in murder which has consequences throughout。 And there are a lot of rats in this story, so if that fazes you I'd give this book a pass。 Overall a quick and engrossing read。 A pretty gruesome little tale which per King's note at the end was based on a true story。 A dispute over land ends in murder which has consequences throughout。 And there are a lot of rats in this story, so if that fazes you I'd give this book a pass。 Overall a quick and engrossing read。 。。。more

My first Stephen King book。 Having a teenage son myself, reading about the terror this boy's dad put him through made me feel sick。 Could my boy turn out that way? Only make believe but felt so real!

*Audio Book*4。5 StarsGruesome, gory, bloodsoaked and unsettling。 Would you expect anything less from King?In short this is a story of a man with an idea。 He follows through on this idea and it starts to unravel his whole life。 It also strongly centers around rats。 Big, hungry, merciless ones。 This is not a typical King layout, but the first person narrative giving his confession is done so well that I easily finished this 5 hour book quickly。 Of you have a strong stomach and are a fan of King or *Audio Book*4。5 StarsGruesome, gory, bloodsoaked and unsettling。 Would you expect anything less from King?In short this is a story of a man with an idea。 He follows through on this idea and it starts to unravel his whole life。 It also strongly centers around rats。 Big, hungry, merciless ones。 This is not a typical King layout, but the first person narrative giving his confession is done so well that I easily finished this 5 hour book quickly。 Of you have a strong stomach and are a fan of King or the liking, check this one out! 。。。more

I loved the suspense that this book brought and the movie stuck very close to the book as well。 Would definitely read it again。

1922By Stephen KingThis is a King book I missed when it was new。 I am just now getting to it。 Although it is short, especially for King, it has everything! The creep factor, the human greed, and lots of suspense。 It's about a family on a farm and the woman wants to move to the city。 The son is only 14 and would go with the mom。 But dad it greedy。 He wants it all to himself。 He gets the son to help murder the mom and hide the body。 They lie and say she ran away。 Well, you know in King's books, al 1922By Stephen KingThis is a King book I missed when it was new。 I am just now getting to it。 Although it is short, especially for King, it has everything!

After reading lovecraft,I found kings language not nearly artistic as HPL。Kings writing is vivid,detailed but it lacks that sweet tone of HPL。Ok, But the tale is really spooky。 And I think king should be in jail for writing such vivid murder scence。Ok you have killed your nasty wife who had made your life so miserable。And you are that guy who made your son to take part in this heinous plan。whats now??Surely heaven watched what have you done。 Now its time for the consequences。You need to bury you After reading lovecraft,I found kings language not nearly artistic as HPL。Kings writing is vivid,detailed but it lacks that sweet tone of HPL。Ok, But the tale is really spooky。 And I think king should be in jail for writing such vivid murder scence。Ok you have killed your nasty wife who had made your life so miserable。And you are that guy who made your son to take part in this heinous plan。whats now??Surely heaven watched what have you done。 Now its time for the consequences。You need to bury your feelings of greed,lust and guilt。You have to deal with yourself and the people in practical。 Dostoevsky put it so elegantly in his book crime and punishment " when a man understand that he had committed a sin, and acknowledge it, that's his punishment"。In this book we can see the horror of this punishment, the horror of random thoughts, morality; it almost hallucinate you always。But man will be man, and this murders will always be commited, in the past,in the present and also in the future。Its so fascinating that a cruel breed like us preach religious thoughts and also justify many murders and crimes。What a cute little bustards we are!!But So is the God's punishment(I dont believe in him though)。。and a guilty man will feel the wrath of the nature。The devils that drive us are the actual horrors。Horrors that we can't run away from。 。。。more

به نسبت سایر داستان های استیفن کینگ این داستان رو دوست داشتم ملموس بود و عالی

Marti

Creepy in the best possible way。

Nice short book。 Pretty creepy and disturbing。 Not many twists or turns, but I like the biographical writing and the lack of chapters。 Loved the ending。

Classic Stephen King dialog and storytelling, but a bit over the top。 This book is not for the faint of heart。 This is the only Stephen King book I'm aware of that has a character with the name Shannon。 Some of my favorite quotes:"The truth is never cussing son。 'Such a bitch!' ""A women's looks are the honey, you know, that lure men on to the stinging hive, but not her God awful stubbornness。""A Downey cheek that hadn't yet felt the stroke of a razer。""A chuckle escaped him and he clapped his h Classic Stephen King dialog and storytelling, but a bit over the top。 This book is not for the faint of heart。 This is the only Stephen King book I'm aware of that has a character with the name Shannon。 Some of my favorite quotes:"The truth is never cussing son。 'Such a bitch!'

I love this book! It was gruesome and oddly sad。 Great quick read。 I am also extremely terrified of rats now。。thanks。

A wonder of a scary King novella。 Rats, deep derelict wells, more rats, hatboxes, blood-soaked mattresses, a dead farmer's wife and the farmer, Wilf, who with his teenage boy Henry try to get by in the days after on their Nebraska farm, but, it's hard, very, very hard and bad things happen, as they do, more bad things。 A King page turner, one in which you will scrunch up your face a number of times but read to the very unbelievable end。 And true to King's narrative style, it is thoughtful, deep, A wonder of a scary King novella。 Rats, deep derelict wells, more rats, hatboxes, blood-soaked mattresses, a dead farmer's wife and the farmer, Wilf, who with his teenage boy Henry try to get by in the days after on their Nebraska farm, but, it's hard, very, very hard and bad things happen, as they do, more bad things。 A King page turner, one in which you will scrunch up your face a number of times but read to the very unbelievable end。 And true to King's narrative style, it is thoughtful, deep, and horrific by turns。 A tiny gem in 129 pages。 。。。more

This was as good as the movie 🎥

Another amazing novella by King! Be warned though, this book is absolutely, 100% gruesome/morbid/disgusting。 It’s a lot worse than the Netflix movie it inspired! But would still definitely recommend for horror fans!

Anche a costo di essere ripetitiva, tutto quello che scrive quest'uomo è degno di nota。 Forse 1922 è meno conosciuto di altri racconti del Re, ma credetemi, vale la pena recuperarlo。 Anche a costo di essere ripetitiva, tutto quello che scrive quest'uomo è degno di nota。 Forse 1922 è meno conosciuto di altri racconti del Re, ma credetemi, vale la pena recuperarlo。 。。。more

One of My Favorite King stories I absolutely enjoyed this book。 The description was so detailed, I actually saw what he was describing。 The characters were well thought out and the story flowed easily。 If you are a King fan this is a great short read。

Not my favorite SK story, but absolutely not my worst。 It didn’t scare me, and there was more bore than gore。
