Needful Things

Stephen King

FIRST EDITION OF NEEDFUL THINGS, INSCRIBED BY STEPHEN KING

KING, Stephen. Needful Things. (New York): Viking, (1991). Octavo, original half black cloth, original dust jacket. $1900.

First edition of King's critically praised "horror ride… where all hell breaks loose," boldly inscribed by him on the half title in the year of publication, "For C— With best wishes, Stephen King 12/4/91."

Returning to Castle Rock in Needful Things, King again sets the stage where "all hell breaks loose and we're off on another horror ride… As always, one is bowled over by Stephen King's… ability to line up vast landscapes of dominoes whose toppling will concatenate catastrophically, and by his sheer inventive energy… Reading him late into the night, you feel the walls closing in" (New York Times). Basis for the 1993 film starring Max von Sydow and Ed Harris.

A splendid inscribed copy in fine condition.
