From Publishers Weekly
Eyebrows arched in literary circles when, in 1995, the New Yorker published Stephen King\'s \"The Man in the Black Suit,\" a scorchingly atmospheric tale of a boy\'s encounter with the Devil in backwoods Maine. The story went on to win the 1996 O. Henry Award for Best Short Story, confirming what King fans have known for years that the author is not only immensely popular but immensely talented, a modern-day counterpart to Twain, Hawthorne, Dickens. \"The Man in the Black Suit\" appears in this hefty collection, King\'s first since Nightmares and Dreamscapes (1993), along with three other extraordinary New Yorker tales: \"All That You Love Will Be Carried Away,\" an intensely moving story of a suicidal traveling salesman who collects graffiti; \"The Feeling, You Can Only Say What It Is in French,\" about a woman caught in a fatal loop of deja vu; and \"The Death of Jack Hamilton,\" a gritty, witty tale of Dillinger\'s gang on the lam. Together, they make up what King, in one of many author asides, calls his \"literary stories,\" which he contrasts to the \"all-out screamers\" though most of the stories here seem a mix of the two, with the distinction as real as a line on a map. \"Autopsy Room Four,\" a black-humor horror about a man who wakes up paralyzed in a morgue and about to be autopsied, displays a mastery of craft, and \"1408,\" a haunted hotel-room story that first surfaced on the audio book Blood and Smoke, engenders a sense of profound unease, of dread, as surely as do the elegant work of Blackwood or Machen or, if one prefers, Baudelaire or Sartre.
