In his New York Times bestselling The Wind Through the Keyhole, Stephen King returns to the spectacular territory of the Dark Tower fantasy saga to tell a story about gunslinger Roland Deschain in his early days.

The Wind Through the Keyhole is a sparkling contribution to the series that can be placed between Dark Tower IV and Dark Tower V. This Russian doll of a novel, a story within a story within a story, visits Roland and his ka-tet as a ferocious, frigid storm halts their progress along the Path of the Beam. Roland tells a tale from his early days as a gunslinger, in the guilt-ridden year following his mother’s death. Sent by his father to investigate evidence of a murderous shape-shifter, Roland takes charge of Bill Streeter, a brave but terrified boy who is the sole surviving witness to the beast’s most recent slaughter. Roland, himself only a teenager, calms the boy by reciting a story from the Book of Eld that his mother used to read to him at bedtime, "The Wind through the Keyhole." "A person’s never too old for stories," he says to Bill. "Man and boy, girl and woman, we live for them."

And stories like The Wind Through the Keyhole live for us with Stephen King’s fantastical magic that "creates the kind of fully imagined fictional landscapes a reader can inhabit for days at a stretch" (The Washington Post).

Stephen King

Stephen King nasceu em Portland, no Maine, em 1947. Após o divórcio dos pais, ainda criança, foi criado pela mãe, Nelly Ruth Pillsbury King. Licenciou-se em Inglês na Universidade do Maine, em 1970, com uma especialização em Ensino. Conheceu a mulher, Tabitha Spruce, nos corredores da biblioteca da universidade, onde ambos trabalhavam enquanto estudantes. Casariam em 1971.
Publica o seu primeiro romance, Carrie, em 1974, cujo contrato de edição lhe permitiu abandonar o ensino e dedicar-se em exclusivo à escrita. Depois? Depois é história, numa vida literária com mais de cinquenta anos e mais de sessenta livros publicados. 'Salem's Lot – A Hora do Vampiro, The Shining, The Stand – A Dança da Morte, Samitério de Animais, It – A Coisa, 22/11/63, O Intruso, Billy Summers, Holly ou Mais Sombrio, entre outros, e todos publicados pela Bertrand Editora, fazem de King um dos grandes mestres da moderna narrativa americana, um autor que concilia inquietação, entretenimento e qualidade literária como nenhum outro.
