Uno dei romanzi più famosi di Stephen King, spesso considerato, insieme a “It”, il suo capolavoro assoluto.
Il mondo sembra giunto al capolinea a causa di un virus, fuggito per errore dai laboratori dove è stato generato per scopi bellici, che stermina il genere umano. Qualcuno però è ne immune.
Inizia da qui l’avventura di Stu, Nick, Larry, Tom e Frannie, che, radunatisi sotto la guida della centenaria Mother Abagail, dovranno lottare contro l’uomo nero, Randall Flagg.
In uno scenario post apocalittico, assistiamo all’eterna lotta tra il bene e il male, tema molto caro allo scrittore.
La colonna sonora raggruppa tutti i riferimenti musicali – titoli di canzoni, citazioni di testi, nomi di cantanti, gruppi e musicisti… – contenuti nel romanzo.
