-Does the dog die? Yes. -No sexual assault or sex scenes, erections are described -Abortion is the centre of the story, from the view point of a 70 year old man. He never expresses an opinion but wishes everyone wouldn’t “be so shrill” about it. Narrative leans towards pro-choice, but is very nuanced with the different discussions characters have about the subject. This was published the same year (1993) that Maine (King’s state) passed a law that legalised abortions.emmiemopho's review against another edition

Overall this book was a good read. The story was interesting and as a reader was constantly wanting Ralph to stay in the long timers world just to continue to see everything hidden. It was neat. Recommend the read.

This is one of Mr. King’s stories that I think has a perfect ending and it had me bawling my eyes out at almost midnight. The one thing I will say is
