Description

The story of Lizzie has been adapted into a mini-series written by Stephen King, starring Julian Moore and Clive Owen, directed by Pablo Larrain.

Two years ago, Lizzie lost her husband, Scott, after twenty-five years of marriage. Scott was an award-winning bestselling author and a complex man. From the beginning of their relationship, before they got married, Lizzie knew that Scott withdrew into a certain place – a place that scared him and healed him at the same time, a place that could devour him alive or provide him with the ideas he needed to stay alive.

Now it is Lizzie's turn to confront Scott's demons and visit this terrifying place. Soon, what initially seems like a widow's attempt to organize her famous husband's notes becomes a fateful journey into the darkness of his life.

The story of Lizzie, perhaps Stephen King's most personal and powerful work, addresses the source of creativity, the temptations of madness, and the secret language of love.

They said about the book: “The Story of Lizzie is different from any other work by King. You feel the personal tone in his style, you understand that he truly loves this book.” –USA Today

“The Story of Lizzie is tangible proof that Stephen King has evolved from a talented horror writer to an important literary figure.” –Los Angeles Times

“Intricate and enjoyable.” –The New Yorker

“The rich portrait of a marriage and the complex affection that lives beyond death.” –The Washington Post

Stephen King is one of the leading writers of our time. With 50 novels, 200 short stories and essays, and over 350 million copies sold. His works, many of which have been adapted into films and series, include Salem's Lot, It, The Stand, the epic Dark Tower series, The Shining, The Green Mile, Hearts in Atlantis, The Institute, Outsider, Elevation, and Sleeping Beauties (co-written with his son, Owen King).

He has received the Bram Stoker and Locus awards from the British, American, and International Horror Writers Associations, the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, and the National Medal of Arts from the U.S. Government. In 2016, he was honored by the Library of Congress for the Totality of His Work, and in 2018, he received the prestigious PEN literary award.

Additionally, The Outsider and The Institute topped the Goodreads Choice Awards in the mystery and thriller category in 2018 and 2019, respectively. King lives in Bangor, Maine, with his wife, novelist Tabitha King.
