![]() ![]() ![]() America’s so called king of boogeymen, for me was king of ha-ha. I had read King’s ‘Christine’ and ‘Desperation’ earlier, neither of which had succeeded in impressing me (in fact in this book King accepts that ‘Christine wasn’t as good as I had hoped’, sic). ‘The Langoliers’, ‘Secret Window, Secret Garden’, ‘The Library Policeman’ and ‘The Sun Dog’. Did I say compilation? Yes, Four past midnight is a collection of 4 novella’s (too long to be a short story and too short to be called a novel), viz. Embarking on a 25 hour train journey from Mumbai to Delhi, I needed something to kill time and the compilation fit my needs to the T. What made me pick up this book when I went to my local book store was its thick size. ![]()
