Editor’s Introduction: Daniel Dern is a big Stephen King fan and hopes you’ll become one, too. His previous evangelical send was &#;An Evening With (As In, They’re On Stage, I’m In The Audience) Stephen and Owen King, On Tour Promoting ‘Sleeping Beauties’” in
By Daniel Dern: Stephen King&#;s new novel, The Institute ( pages), is a solid contemporary (set in our world, current timeframe) science fiction novel, of kids with undeveloped psionic powers &#; TP (telepathy) and/or TK (telekinetics)&#; and the (clandestine) organization &#; here, &#;The Institute&#; &#; that is kidnapping them. Why? Read the book.
King has written about psi kids before &#; Firestarter (which I liked a lot) comes, ahem, to mind. (Carrie, too, although I&#;ve lost track whether there was ultimately any darker/fantasy source to her abilities.) And he&#;s written other sf, favor Under the Dome. (Along with way lots of stuff categorized under &#;horror,&#; of course.) And bunches of simply good stuff, like Shawshank Redemption, and the short-story that first brought me t
Stephen King Champions &#;It Chapter Two&#; Lgbtq+ Character Surprise: &#;Kind of Genius&#;
[Editor’s note: Spoilers ahead for “It: Chapter Two.”]
&#;It: Chapter Two&#; has finally hit theaters, and the much-anticipated sequel to last year&#;s blockbuster Stephen king adaptation did not disappoint. In one of the most exciting developments in director Andy Muschietti&#;s follow-up, which was written by Gary Dauberman, the pair depart from the original novel to support a long-held fan theory that a major character — Richie Tozier (played by Bill Hader and Finn Wolfhard) — is bisexual. During a terrifying flashback sequence involving clown Pennywise (Bill Skarsgard), “It: Chapter Two” firmly establishes that Richie is not strictly heterosexual, and that the discovery that he is indeed interested in men is actually one of his biggest fears.
Specifically, he has feelings for Eddie Kaspbrak (played by Jack Dylan Grazer and James Ransone). &#;It’s actually not really alluded to in the book,&#; Ransone told IndieWire during a recent int

Oozing Sex
The Catholic themes in both Bram Stoker&#;s Dracula and Stephen King&#;s &#;Salem&#;s Lot discussed in my previous send connect directly to the treatment of sex in these texts, which isn&#;t terribly surprising, since the Catholics have a lot to (not) say about this subject.
For a college English class, I wrote a paper on Dracula entitled &#;Sex Fiend&#; about the vampire figure being a reflection/manifestation of the Victorian period&#;s repression of sexuality (which is a result/product of religion). (I remember this folio better than most from college because it&#;s the only one I ever got an A+ on, though technically it might have been an &#;A/A+.&#;) I don&#;t actually acquire a copy of the paper anymore, but for evidence in support of this thesis, take the first instance vampires arrive as an overt threat/monstrous figure in Stoker&#;s text:
I was afraid to increase my eyelids, but looked out and saw perfectly under the lashes. The girl

Andi
One of the first characters that needs to be introduced has to be Andi from Stephen King’s Doctor Sleep, the sequel to The Shining. Otherwise established as Snakebite Andi, the woman was one of the first to connect the villainous leader of the group known as the True Knot recognizable as Rose the Hat.
After a troubled family situation led her to dislike men, Andi joined the True Knot group, who
