Has anyone read Stephen King's favourite novel? I can see why he loves it. It's brutal, naturalistic and full of literary storytelling. A great book, with one of the best endings I've ever read. |

Also, who's read Richard Marsh's THE BEETLE? Just started it. Very Dracula-like. He was Aickman's grandfather, you know. |

Uh Gary, what is King's favourite novel? Is this something I should know, should I be embarrassed because I don't? |

The famous (-ly eviscerated) silent film GREED is based on this novel. |
