Terrifiantes, bouleversantes, sans remords, les confessions d'une vieille dame très indigne.À Little Tall, on attend toujours de savoir ce qui s'est passé le 20 juillet 1963, jour de l'éclipse et de la mort de Joe, le mari de Dolores. Mais aujourd'hui, la police s'intéresse surtout aux circonstances du décès de Vera Donovan, dont Dolores fut la dame de compagnie pendant des décennies...Ce roman a été adapté à l'écran par Taylor Hackforden qui en a tiré un film beaucoup plus étrange que ce qu'on imaginait, beaucoup plus noir, beaucoup plus terrible. Kathy Bates - Oscar de la meilleure actrice pour son interprétation dansMisery- y incarne une Dolores Claiborne, inquiétante, au bord de l'implosion. Taylor Hackforden en a tiré un film beaucoup plus étrange que ce qu'on imaginait, beaucoup plus noir, beaucoup plus terrible.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Different but Wonderful Steven King Story, July 9, 2007

By 

Wanderer (Sacramento, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dolores Claiborne (French Edition) (Mass Market Paperback)

This is a wonderful mystery that begins in a slow roll, but becomes a page turner. Delores Claiborne, a cranky old maid for a rich lady, tells the story of her life. Highly recommended, but it is not a horror story if that is what you are expecting from Steven King.

Another lightly supernatural book, and different than King's usual stuff, is "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon." This story of a nine-year-old girl lost in the Maine woods is super. Read it! Click here: The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon

I'm a guy and a rabid reader of Stephen King and this one is one of his best. The plot is excellent and for once, a book is told by a woman. I recommend it to anyone!
