"Stephen King's peerless imagination and storytelling genius have captivated a huge audience over twenty years of bestsellerdom. A brilliant dark-hued fable of the gender wars, a haunting love story, and a hold-your-breath-until-you-gasp triumph of suspense, Rose Madder is Stephen King at his electrifying best". Rose Madder centres around the complex and tragic concept of domestic violence, a theme King revisits on several occasions. Unlike the infamous Dolores Claiborne, Rose Madder relies on the fantastical and supernatural to drive its point home.
