内容简介
Stephen King’s collection of five stories about ’60s kids reads like a novel。The best is“Low Men in Yellow Coats，”about Bobby Garfield of Harwich，Connecticut，who craves a Schwinn for his 11th birthday。But his widowed mom is impoverished，and so bitter that she barely loves him。King is as good as Spielberg or Steven Millhauser at depicting an enchanted kid’s-eye view of the world，and his Harwich is realistically luminous to the tiniest detail：kids bashing caps with a smoke-blackened rock，a car grille“like the sneery mouth of a chrome catfish，”a Wild Mouse carnival ride that makes kids“simultaneously sure they were going to live forever and die immediately。”
