In The Atlantic's May issue, the magazine will include King's short story Herman Wouk is Still Alive on newsstands April 19th. Herman Wouk was born May 27, 1915 known for his novel War and Remembrance among others. He published a novel last year by the name of The Language of God at the age of 96, which makes me smile to myself a little. Mostly I smile because I think that Constant Readers could quite possibly get another 30+ years of King's writing, that is, if he so obliges. Oh, and how I do wish he would oblige.

ReplyDeleteLol, isn't that why we read all his stories?
Yeah. Because of the original ideas, the interesting themes, the full-blooded characters, the psychological insight, and the unique style. I'm sure this ss won't be an exception, just wondering about the plot.
