The Dark Half By Stephen King (Paperback)

In "The Dark Half" by Stephen King, the creation of George Stark was a straightforward process. However, ridding himself of this alter ego proves to be an arduous endeavor.

The recurring image of sparrows taking flight occupies the fringes of Thad Beaumont's thoughts, persistent and inexplicable. Thad should be overjoyed. For a substantial period, it was his pseudonymous identity, George Stark, responsible for churning out gritty, ultraviolent thrillers that ensured financial stability for his family. Yet, now Thad is earnestly embracing his writing under his true name, laying George Stark to rest once and for all.

However, the unsettling notion of sparrows in flight persists, and Thad's world is rapidly descending into disarray. The tranquility he sought is elusive, as an ominous undercurrent taints his reality. As Thad grapples with the eerie resurgence of George Stark, a foreboding and unsettling sensation envelops his existence, setting the stage for a chilling exploration of duality, identity, and the sinister forces that can emerge from the depths of the human psyche.
