New Different Seasons
Contains RH and the Shawshank Redemption, Apt Pupil, The Body and The Breathing Method.

If you read these stories and think King not capable of literary...then your definition is lacking.

They are not dimestore horror trash...he manages to fit stories into 150 pages or less...3 of which have become movies..2 of them great ones (Shawshank and Stand by Me).

Sure he writes scary stories. He can also just plain write stories...if you haven't read this collection...you must.
If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. Fudd's First Law of Opposition
