"COME ON, BIG GUY. LET'S GO FOR A RIDE. LET'S CRUISE"
KING, Stephen. Christine. New York: Viking, (1983). Octavo, original half black cloth, original dust jacket. $475.
First trade edition of King's critically praised novel.
With Christine, written "in a clear, precise style that recalls The Shining and Firestarter… King proves once again that there is no substitute for the art of storytelling" (New York Times). This is "vintage King… breathtaking" (New York Times Book Review). This eerie tale of a man and his car was King's return to supernatural horror after the 1977 The Shining. Director John Carpenter's film version of the story premiered the same year the book was published. Preceded by a signed limited edition.
