This unique and timely collection examines childhood and the child
character throughout Stephen King's works, from his early novels
and short stories, through film adaptations, to his most recent
publications. King's use of child characters within the framework
of horror (or of horrific childhood) raises questions about adult
expectations of children, childhood, the American family, child
agency, and the nature of fear and terror for (or by) children. The
ways in which King presents, complicates, challenges, or terrorizes
children and notions of childhood provide a unique lens through
which to examine American culture, including both adult and social
anxieties about children and childhood across the decades of King's
works.
