About this deal

Un giovane vagabondo sta lavorando in uno stabilimento tessile in una decrepita cittadina del Maine quando il suo capo, un crudele datore di lavoro, lo recluta insieme ad altri per effettuare una grande impresa di pulizia. I sotterranei dello stabilimento sono stati abbandonati per decenni, e nel corso degli anni un insediamento di topi ne ha preso possesso. Non appena la ciurma avanza nei sotterranei, sono spaventati nello scoprire che anni di isolamento e buio hanno provocato mutamenti genetici: molti di loro sono cresciuti fino alle dimensioni di piccoli cani. Alcuni hanno sviluppato un elementare adattamento al volo. Dopo alcune discussioni il protagonista assieme al capo e a un altro lavorante riescono a raggiungere un ulteriore livello sotterraneo chiuso dall'interno, che nasconde qualcosa di così terrificante che gli uomini stentano a credere - un überrat delle dimensioni di una mucca, senza occhi o gambe, con il solo compito di generare altri topi. A bunch of awful teenagers go to the beach at night, in the middle of an apocalyptical world where the most of population have died due a contagious decease. This is an allegorical tale about a racist, sexist, generally unpleasant man who is willing to judge others but cannot see his own faults. But, you can't hide from the boogeyman! This short story is perfect; it's as simple as that. No supernatural elements, but instead chilling and suspenseful writing with an ending which made me swallow more than once. Easily one of my favorite short stories of all time. I now love collections for the diversity in story, characters and settings they offer. And Night Shift is one of my favourites, pulpy bundle of great tales. So let’s jump in.

No está de más decir que recomiendo ampliamente esta antología, la van a pasar muy bien en unos casos, o muy mal en otros, todo depende del tipo de miedo que no quieras saborear. Dejaré mi percepción sobre algunos, unos datos sobre otros, y mis favoritos, que de seguro releeré con frecuencia.Theres a great sense of Lovecraftian homage with the presence of the worm, and the rats. See: The Rats in the Walls Che piacere, per me, mettere piede nell'entrata gelida e piena di correnti d'aria, qui a Chapelwaite, con tutte le ossa doloranti per colpa di quell'abominevole carrozza, con l'urgenza di dare immediato sollievo alla mia povera vescica... e riconoscere la tua inimitabile zampa di gallina sulla lettera indirizzata a me e appoggiata sopra l'orribile tavolinetto di ciliegio accanto alla porta! Un trago de despedida: Un relato que sucede en Jerusalem's Lot, y que tengo la leve sensación que esta historia trascurre después de los acontecimientos de El misterio de Salem's Lot, no puedo decirlo con certeza porque no he leído esa novela. Pero esa fue la sensación que me generó. Es un buen relato, y me deja con muchas ganas de leer esa novela de King tan aclamada por algunas personas.

Me despido de un compañero al que solía a visitar antes de dormir. Fue una buena experiencia esta antología, señalada como la mejor de King, y bueno, ¿Por qué diría que no es así? Ya había leído algunos relatos del autor y me habían parecido muy normales, cuestión que me hizo encarar con recelo está antología a pesar de sus buenas críticas, sin embargo, y para mi fortuna, diecinueve de los veinte relatos que se encuentran acá me parecieron muy destacables, obviamente unos me gustaron más que otros, y solo uno me pareció que sí no estuviera no me hubiera perdido de nada, pero ya hablaré de ello más adelante. It almost seems that this is a town born bad: but as we learn, all dark things have a moment where darkness takes root.I was impressed with Kings handling of this story. The themes around toxic masculinity, stalking and rape are important and this story highlights them cunningly. The idea of psychological rape is complex, and I hope King expands on this in later works. The ending is a feminist triumph. Two young brothers cross fates with a gang of punks, and after one of the brothers died, the other escapes. Years later, the surviving brother got married and became an English teacher…

Los misterios del gusano: Mi relato favorito, sin duda. Aunque King desdibuja un poco su estilo para hacerle un pronunciado homenaje a Lovecraft, debo decir que le imprime algo que le da un gran dinamismo a esta historia, me encantó la ambientación descrita por King, el misterio que le imprime a cada página. Un relato que también sucede en Jerusalem's Lot, y que por la época, se nota que es una historia que pasa antes de lo acontecido en El misterio de Sale's Lot. Graveyard Shift - 3 Stars - Sometimes you just want to read a nasty story about some nasty characters and this is it. Set during the summer in a factory in Maine, the story focuses on a group of men who volunteer to work extra to clean the buildings basement. It’s grim work made grimmer by the discovery that the men aren’t the lords of the basement realm. That title belongs to the rats.

During a “strawberry spring”, a kind of false mini season, provoking fog at nights, perfect ambiance for a serial killer’s murdering spree at New Sharon College… If this is anything like Christine, I can't wait to finally read it! King really shines when writing horror about inanimate objects.
