From #1 New York Times bestselling author, legendary storyteller, and master of short fiction Stephen King comes an extraordinary collection of four new and compelling novellas— Mr. Harrigan’s Phone , The Life of Chuck , Rat , and the title story If It Bleeds —each pulling you into intriguing and frightening places.
The novella is a form King has returned to over and over again in the course of his amazing career, and many have been made into iconic films, including “The Body” ( Stand By Me ) and “Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption” ( Shawshank Redemption ). Like Four Past Midnight , Different Seasons , and most recently Full Dark, No Stars , If It Bleeds is a uniquely satisfying collection of longer short fiction by an incomparably gifted writer.
