Stephen King, ""America's Favorite Boogeyman,"" has sold over 350
million copies of his books, becoming in effect the face of horror
fiction. His influence on popular culture has drawn both strong
praise and harsh criticism from reviewers and scholars alike. While
his popularity cannot be overstated, his work has received
relatively little critical attention from the academic world.
Examine King's fiction using modern literary theory, this study
reveals the unexpected complexity of 22 short stories and novels,
from Carrie to End of Watch. The author finds King using fantasy
and horror to expose truths about reality and the human condition.
