具體描述

內容簡介

An epic war between good and evil, a gory, glorious story that will thrill the millions of hyper-devoted readers of The Shining and wildly satisfy anyone new to the territory of this icon in the King canon.

King says he wanted to know what happened to Danny Torrance, the boy at the heart of The Shining, after his terrible experience in the Overlook Hotel. The instantly riveting Doctor Sleep picks up the story of the now middle-aged Dan, working at a hospice in rural New Hampshire, and the very special twelve-year old girl he must save from a tribe of murderous paranormals.

On highways across America, a tribe of people called The True Knot travel in search of sustenance. They look harmless - mostly old, lots of polyester, and married to their RVs. But as Dan Torrance knows, and tween Abra Stone learns, The True Knot are quasi-immortal, living off the 'steam' that children with the 'shining' produce when they are slowly tortured to death.

Haunted by the inhabitants of the Overlook Hotel where he spent one horrific childhood year, Dan has been drifting for decades, desperate to shed his father's legacy of despair, alcoholism, and violence. Finally, he settles in a New Hampshire town, an AA community that sustains him and a job at a nursing home where his remnant 'shining' power provides the crucial final comfort to the dying. Aided by a prescient cat, he becomes 'Doctor Sleep.'

Then Dan meets the evanescent Abra Stone, and it is her spectacular gift, the brightest shining ever seen, that reignites Dan's own demons and summons him to a battle for Abra's soul and survival . .

作者簡介

Stephen King has been described by the Guardian as 'one of the greatest storytellers of our time', by the Mirror as a 'genius' and by The Sunday Times as 'one of the most fertile storytellers of the modern novel'. He has written over 50 books including the seminal masterpiece The Shining about which he writes in his introduction: 'I think in every writer's career - usually early in it - there comes "a crossroads novel", where the writer is presented with a choice: either doing what you have done before, or try to reach a little higher'. In 2003, King was given the National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. He lives with his wife, the novelist Tabitha King, for most of the year in Maine, USA.

小說的主人公奧利弗·特威斯特,是一名生在濟貧院的孤兒,忍飢挨餓,備受欺淩,由於不堪棺材店老闆娘、教區執事邦布爾夫等人的虐待而獨自逃往倫敦,可剛一到達就受騙誤入賊窟。竊賊團夥的首領—費金費盡韆方百計,企圖把奧利弗訓練為扒手以供他驅使。奧利弗跟隨竊賊夥伴“機靈鬼”和貝茨上街時,被誤認為他偷瞭一位叫布朗洛的紳士(恰巧是他父親生前的好友)的手絹而被警察逮捕。後因書攤老闆證明瞭他是無辜的,說明小偷另有其人,他纔被釋放。由於他當時病重昏迷,且容貌酷似友人生前留下的一副少婦畫像,布朗洛收留他在傢中治病,得到布朗洛及其女管傢比德溫太太無微不至的關懷,第一次感受到人間的溫暖。竊賊團夥害怕奧利弗會泄露團夥的秘密,在費金指示下,塞剋斯和南希費盡心機,趁奧利弗外齣替布朗洛歸還書攤老闆的圖書的時候用計使他重新陷入瞭賊窟。但當費金試圖懲罰毒打奧利弗的時候,南希挺身而齣保護瞭奧利弗。費金用威脅、利誘、灌輸等手段企圖迫使奧利弗成為一名竊賊,成為費金的搖錢樹。一天黑夜,奧利弗在塞剋斯的脅迫下參加對一座大宅院的行竊。正當奧利弗準備趁爬進窗戶的機會嚮主人報告時,被管傢發現後開槍打傷。竊賊倉惶逃跑時,把奧利弗丟棄在路旁水溝之中。奧利弗在雨雪之中帶傷爬行,無意中又迴道那傢宅院,昏到在門口。好心的主人梅麗夫人及其養女羅斯小姐收留並庇護瞭他。無巧不成書,這位羅斯小姐正是奧利弗的姨媽,但雙方都不知道。在梅麗夫人傢,奧利弗真正享受到瞭人生的溫馨和美好。但費金團夥卻不能放過奧利弗。有一天一個名叫濛剋斯的人來找費金,這人是奧利弗的同父異母兄長,由於他的不孝,他父親在遺囑中將全部遺産給瞭奧利弗,除非奧利弗和濛剋斯是一樣的不孝兒女,遺産纔可由濛剋斯繼承。為此濛剋斯齣高價買通費金,要他使奧利弗變成不可救藥的罪犯,以便霸占奧利弗名下的全部遺産,並發泄自己對已去世的父親的怨恨。正當濛剋斯得意洋洋的談到他如何和邦布爾夫夫婦狼狽為奸,毀滅瞭能證明奧利弗身份的唯一證據的時候,被南希聽見。南希見義勇為,同情奧利弗的遭遇,冒生命危險,偷偷找到羅斯小姐,嚮她報告瞭這一切。
