    From the NY Times: Stephen King will discuss his new novel, “Lisey’s Story,” when he appears on Oct. 24 at the Peter Jay Sharp Theater at Symphony Space as part of the Thalia Book Club series. The novel deals with the consequences of a widow’s efforts to sort through the papers of her celebrated husband.

    Has King ever done one of these in Canada?
  • BevVincentBevVincent
    I don't recall King ever doing a signing in Canada. I know he did a TV interview up there around the time of Tom Gordon which was most memorable for the way the camera guy swooped and zoomed around him and the interviewer during the process.

    I don't remember him doing anything up here either. Too bad.

    King's appearance in L.A.



    We love Stephen King because he makes the ordinary extraordinary in every possible way. His books turn on ordinary situations, and feature characters that we all can understand—who face the inexplicable. From high school in "Carrie" to his new novel, "Lisey's Story," King brings fear, from the unconscious to the visceral, right to the surface. He has stated that he's the literary equivalent of a Big Mac and Fries, and we couldn't disagree more. Big Macs are empty calories indeed, and furthermore, not recommended for anyone's health. King is another story entirely—because the best stories are the best medicine, and no one is a better storyteller. David Ulin is the editor of the Los Angeles Times Book Review, and is the editor and author of several award-winning books, including "Writing LA, A Literary Anthology," "Another City: Writing from Los Angeles," and his most recent and terrific book, "The Myth of Solid Ground: Earthquakes, Prediction, and the Fault Line Between Reason and Faith."



    Tickets are $20.
