"He was so down to earth, he was funny, and of course a great story teller! He told us one story about when he knew he made it big. He was in a small restaurant, I forget where--NY maybe, having dinner with Bruce Springsteen. A family came in and sat near them, celebrating something. Their daughter, who was probably 15/16, kept sneaking glances at Stephen King and Bruce Springsteen. Eventually she got up, and walked their way. Bruce Springsteen started to reach into his pocket for his pen. The girl never even looked his way. She went right to Stephen King and politely asked for his autograph, totally ignoring Bruce Springsteen! Just one of the many great stories he told that night." --Diana
Stephen King's newest book is Joyland.
Set in a small-town North Carolina amusement park in 1973, Joyland tells the story of the summer in which college student Devin Jones comes to work as a carny and confronts the legacy of a vicious murder, the fate of a dying child, and the ways both will change his life forever.
