My name is Pavel. Stephen King is one of my favorite writer. Moreover, I can say with confidently, he is simply one the best writers in the world. The surprising thing is that my favorite are not his scary stories but his social novels e.g. The Running Man and Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption. I regularly reread these books.

Their clothes and styles of walking seemed oddly familiar, as if they had been around a great many times before and Richards was just becoming aware of it‑in the tentative, uneasy way you recognize the voices of the dead in dreams.
There were more cops, too.
I'm being bracketed, he thought. The idea brought a helpless, rabbit terror.
No, his mind corrected. You've already been bracketed."
It is a masterpiece!
