His new book got a great review in the NYT by Margaret Atwood, the author. I remember several years ago when King won some kind of literary award and "serious" writers went ballistic.

I think King has always been pretty cantankerous, and more so after he was seriously injured years ago.

BTW I hear he goes to Red Sox games all the time.
