Front hinge taped; pages excellent. No jacket. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn five connected narratives, Stephen King follows lives shaped by the 1960s and the long shadow of the Vietnam War. A boy in a Connecticut town befriends a mysterious older lodger whose fears hint at forces beyond ordinary understanding. At college, a compulsive card game threatens young men's futures while the possibility of military service draws closer. Later stories return to the scars, losses and unresolved obligations carried into adulthood. Moving between supernatural unease and recognisable American history, the book explores friendship, innocence, guilt and the uncertain reliability of memory. Characters and experiences recur across the years, creating a portrait of a generation whose youthful hopes remain entangled with what it failed to prevent.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Value Junction ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67733810184404,"sku":"TVJ-034533","price":34.5,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/3059\/2980\/files\/TVJ-034533-1.jpg?v=1792030971","url":"https:\/\/thevaluejunction.co.nz\/products\/tvj-034533","provider":"The Value Junction ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
