Writing with understated simplicity, he takes us through the awful sequence of events, from the moment he was struck by a van near his home in Maine, through his emergency medical treatment and long rehabilitation, to the moment he sat down at a typewriter and, in agonizing pain, began writing again.
King's advice to writers is generally sound, and he delivers it with refreshing irreverence, but nothing can disguise the fact that nearly all of it is stuff we've heard a thousand times before.
For me, King's most remarkable talent is his ability to magnify and dramatize the ordinary fears that lie at the root of everyday life.
