Iqhinga "lobungqina" lobunzima lobomi bakhe laqhutyelwa ngumcebisi. USteve wayeneminyaka emibini kuphela ubudala xa uyise uDonald King, owayengumthengisi womkhumbi wemikhosi, washiya indlu ukuba athenge i-cigarettes-ngoko akazange abuyele. Ekhohlo kunye neqela leebhilikhwe ezingabhatalwa kunye nabantwana ababini ezandleni zakhe (uDavid osemdala, umzala, kwakukho ezine), unina, uNelly uRuth Pillsberry King, engafumani nantoni na yonke into evuyisayo yokukhululwa komfazi, ejikeleza njenge-squirrel evili. Aba bathathu bahamba nge-East Coast ye-Amerika, beka ngexesha elizeleyo bahlale nezihlobo ezininzi. Ubuninzi bejografi yabantwana bakhe bokubambisana uKumkani ngamanye amaxesha adibana nomnqweno wam umama ukufumana uyise ophunyukileyo. Kuloo Donald wasinda, kwaye akazange athunjwa yizilwanyana ezivela kwamanye amanqanaba, umbhali, naphezu kobungqina bakhe beengqondo, uqiniseke ngokuzalwa kwakhe okungenakulinganiswa ngo-1947, ubudlelwane bobukumkani bukaKumkani bafikelela kwindawo yokubilisa. Nangona kunjalo, imfihlakalo yokunyamalala kwendoda ayibonakalisiwe nanamhla.
Kukho omnye umxholo onxulumene nomzali olahlekileyo: ngokucacileyo malunga neminyaka engama-5 ukuya ku-6 ubudala, uStevie wakhonkxa etafuleni lika-anti wakhe kwizinto zakudala waza wafumana isitikiti sikayise, enezinto ezimnandi kunye neencwadi ezivela kwiiofisi zokuhlela ezahlukileyo, apho, ngohlobo oluqhelekileyo, uDonald King walelwa mpapasho. Mhlawumbi umnqweno wokugqwesa kwimisebenzi yombhali ngokokuqala ngqa wavuka kuyise kaStefano kuyise, owamgxotha entliziyweni. Ngaphambi kwayo yonke into uKuuu wayesekho, ode kangakanani, kodwa waba ngumnini-co-owns wephephandaba lakhe kwangoko. Kwakuyinto engaqinisekanga kabini, enikwe ubuhlwempu apho intsapho yamaKumkani yayihlala khona. Andizange ndifanele ndilambile nantoni (kubonga kuzo zonke iindane ezifanayo), kodwa ezininzi iinzuzo zempucuko zafika kuSteve ubomi kamva kunezinye ezininzi zaseMelika eziselula. Umzekelo, waqala ukubukela iTV eneminyaka eyi-11. Nangona kunjalo, uKumkani ulahla ukungabikho komabonwakude njengobuncwane bakhe ebuntwaneni, ngokuphindaphindiweyo efuna ukuba abo bafuna ukuba yindoda yombhali baza kuba kuhle ukuba baqhewule intambo yomabonwakude kuqala kwaye, xa beyiphonkceza kwiphonki yentsimbi, bayibeke iplagi kwisiseko. Waqala ukubhala eneminyaka engama-7 ubudala, kwaye ngo-12, yena kunye nomntakwabo uDavid bebevele "banomdla wamagalelo eendaba" kwiPhondo laseDurham, abapapashile iphephandaba labo, "iDow's Dill", apho abazalwana bakaKumkani babuyisela inkohlakalo, iindaba zezemidlalo, i-anecdotes, kunye noSteve wabhala "ibali" ngokuqhubeka. "Gorchiknik", eqala ukusasazwa kweekopi ezingama-5 ngeli xesha (xa uDave noSteve befuduka kwi-hectographic ehamba phambili kunye neyokuqala ukuya kwi-rotaprint) bafikelela kwiikopi ezingama-50-60. Izihlobo kunye nabamelwane bathengiwe "Gorchichnik" ngamasenti amahlanu ngekamelo ngalinye, okwakunokuba luncedo oluncedo kuyo yonke imali kaRuth King.
Ukongezelela, umvuzo uvumele uStephen ukuba azinikelele kwizinto zokuzonwabisa ezithandwa ngabantwana bakhe - uhambo lwe-Ritz cinema, apho amafilimu e-edgar afana ne-Roger Corman ajikeleza, abadlali "abadala" beklasi "B" kunye nanjengomoya ofanayo. Ekugqibeleni, ukuthakazelisa nokulungelelaniswa kunye neendaba zikaEdgar Poe wadlala ngokukrakra ngumbhali omncinci-uKumkani waprintela ibali lakhe elithi "I-Well kunye nePendulum" kwinani lamashumi amane kwi-rotaprint ekhaya. Uhlobo olupheleleyo lwathengiswa esikolweni ngosuku olulandelayo, kwaye ixabiso lalisele liqinile - iisenti ezingama-25. Ekupheleni kwesi sifundo, umgcini-mali wabuyela malunga ne-10 bucks kwaye wayengenakho ukukholelwa olo lonwabo. Kwaye ngokufanelekileyo - akazange ashiye iklasi, njengoko wathatyathwa kumlawuli. Iintlawulo zafuneka zibuyiselwe, kwaye ukusuka kwinqaku lomlawuli "kwaye unamahloni okuchitha it talente kwizinto ezingenangqondo" uKumkani wathola ubunzima obude, apho alahle khona iminyaka engamashumi amane. Ukungena kunye nokungazinzi kwombhali wexesha elizayo kwanyusa umlawuli wesikolo ukuba acinge ngokuhambisa amandla kaKumkani kwisiteshi esakhayo - isithuba somnyatheli wezemidlalo sakhiwe kwi-Lisbon Wyclie Enterprise. UStefano akazange aphefumlelwe ngoku, kodwa ukusebenzisana nomhleli uJohn Gould wambonisa kuye imigaqo emibini yegolide yomlobi: itekisi efanelekileyo yikhowudi yomthombo engaphantsi kweepesenti ezili-10; Ibali elihle libhaliwe kwiinqanaba ezimbini - "ngomnyango ovaliweyo" (ngokwakho) kwaye "ngokuvulekileyo" (kunye neliso kumfundi). Akunjalo uThixo owaziyo ukuba yintoni iimbulo, ngoko emva koko, uKumkani wayengakaze abe yingqiqo. Okokuqala, oku kwanele.
Ulutsha lwakhe oluthandabuzayo
Emva kokugqiba esikolweni esiphakamileyo, ukujonga okufutshane kwaye kungeyona imidlalo, uKumkani cishe akazange azithobele kwiVietnam ukufumana izinto ezininzi kwiincwadi ezizayo. Unina, owamthiya yi-idiot, waphazamisa, kwaye waqiniseka ukuba umbhali enombhoxo ebunzini lakhe kwakungenakwenzeka ukuba abhale incwadi enhle. Nangona kunjalo, iimvakalelo ezifanayo kunye neencwadi zikaKumkani azizange zivele ngokukhawuleza. IYunivesithi (yonke imimandla yaseMeine efanayo), emva koko i-bachelor encinci iya kufunda isiNgesi kwisikolo, ukufumana imali kwindawo yokuhlamba impahla, emva koko kwipilisi yokucoca, ibe yinto yaba ngcwaba lakhe lokubhala. Ngaloo xesha, wayesebenomfazi-wayengumfundi weTabitha Spruce, lowo uKumkani wadibana nayo kwiingqungquthela zeengqungquthela. Kwiminyaka emithathu kamva, ookumkani babenabantwana ababini, intombi kaNahomi noYohane unyana, kunye neqela leakhawunti kamasipala. Iindaba zokuzalwa kukaJohane, ngendlela, wabamba uKumkani ngenxa yexesha lokuthanda kwakhe - wayebukela iifilimu ezikrakra kwibala lemidlalo xa evakaliswa ngumkhethi: "UStephen King! Umfazi wakho uzala! Khawukhawuleze ekhaya! "Ukuzama ukuphelisa imiphefumlo, intsapho encinane ihlala kwi-trailer esincinci, iphazamise iindleko zentsapho ezingabonakaliyo zamabali ashicilelwe kumaphephancwadi omntu, kunye nomvuzo omncinane weTabta, owayesebenza njenge-waitress eDunkin Donat. Ngamanye amaxesha uKumkani wayehlawulwa kakuhle, amaxesha ambalwa yena kunye noThabitha babenokwenza isidlo sangempela kwisidlo sasekuhlaleni (kunye nangoko ukukhangela ukushicilelwa kukaKumkani osindayo kwinyanga yokuvalelwa ukuqhuba ngokugqithiseleyo-i-penalty ukuya kwekhulu ihambelana nemali yentlawulo), kodwa oku kwakungekho okwaneleyo ubomi. Yonke into yayilungiselele loo nto. UThabitha ofunyenwe ngengozi kwinqwelo angenza amanqaku amaninzi kunye neengcamango ezinzima zebali. UKumkani ngelo xesha wayesele ephelelwe yithemba kwaye wagqiba ukubopha iincwadi, kodwa uThabitha wakwazi ukunyanzela ukubhala kwakhe. Indlu yokushicilela "kabini" yathatha le mibhalo, ihlawula umlobi imali engama-dollar ayi-2, emva koko imangalisa eyenzekayo-ibali laphinde laxelwa omnye umvakalisi nge $ 400,000, isiqingatha sazo sasiya kuStephen King. Incwadi malunga ne-schoolgirl-paranormalke, eyaqala ukuqala ngokukhawuleza kombhali, yathiwa "nguCarrie." Ibali elingenakuzithoba elibhalwa ngolwimi olulula, ngokubambelela kwindlela ethile yengqondo yengqondo yabalinganiswa obucacileyo kunye nobungqina beenkcukacha.
Ukususela ngo-1974 ukuya ekupheleni kuka-80 uKumkani, ngokwembono yesininzi, wenza imisebenzi yakhe engcono. Yintoni ephawulekayo kukuba ixesha lokuvelisa okungaqhelekanga lihambelane nexesha lokungaxilisi kunye nokusetyenziswa kweziyobisi. Ezinye izaveli, umzekelo "uCujo" okanye "uTomminker", njengoko umbhali ngokwakhe avumile, kubhalwe phantsi kwimeko eyaziwayo. Ukugqithisa umlutha (obangelwa ngutyebi ngokukhawuleza kunye nokufa kukaMama), wayekwazi ukuphela kwengu-87, ekupheleni kwinto ethi "inzingo". Umfanekiso womhlengikazi onobuqaqa obambe umlobi wakhe othandekayo, umxhatshazo kunye notywala ebomini bukaKumkani. Zingaphi iilitha zebhiya, iingoma ze-cocaine kunye ne-kosyachkov ezingasetyenzisiweyo nguKumkani, iinyani zicacile ... "Ixesha leYerusalem", "Ukukhanya," "Uluhlu olufileyo", "Ungabonakali," "U-Christina", "It" Green Mile "- abavakalisi abakhulu baseMelika baye bakwazi ukuthenga amanye amalungelo kunye nokuzikhangela ipeni lomlobi osebenzayo, ukuphakamisa iimali kwiindawo eziphakamileyo zee-dollar. UKumkani wabhala malunga noko akubonayo, wayehlala, oko wayeyikwesabayo kunye nokucinga kwakhe, ngoko ke isalathiso esondele kwimbali enye yaseMerika: "Davilka" (amava kwindawo yokuhlamba), "It" (inkumbulo yengane), "Amangcwaba ezilwanyana zasekhaya" (ukufa ikati yasekhaya phantsi kwamavili emoto) njalo njalo. Izilwanyana zikaStephen King zinyuka kwiindawo zokubhema zesebe, kwiilayibrari zephondo, kwizicwangciso, kwiimoto ezisetyenzisiweyo, abaqokeleli besixeko, kwiivenkile zasemakhaya nakwii-biotoilets. Bayijikeleze abafundi kungekuphela nje kweengcamango, babesengxenyeni yobude, obesabisayo. Kukho, nangona kunjalo, amabali ohlobo oluthile. Ngokomzekelo, intsha yomntwana "Inyoka Yobunzima" uKumkani wabhala ngokukhethekileyo intombi kaNahomi, "owayengenomdla kwiintlobo zam, izilwanyana kunye nezinye izidalwa ezimbi." Kwaye, ngokuqinisekileyo, ngaphandle kobuxoki kunye neengqondo zengqondo kukho umjikelo othi "I-Dark Tower", isiqalo esithile sokuqulunqa, apho ekugqibeleni uKumkani wagxotha yonke into ebhaliweyo. Incwadana, okuyi-fusion yama-Samurai epic, entshonalanga kunye nefantasy emnyama, yabhalwa nzima kwaye amaxesha amaninzi aphonswa kunye nebhokisi ende ngokubhekiselele kwindlela yayo yokuthengisa engekho ngentengiso, kodwa emva kokukhululwa kwenxalenye yokuqala, "Umqhubi", ngomnyaka we-82 owedlule, bekunjalo. Abafaki bomjikelezo basongela ukuba bazibulale, ukuba uKumkani uphosa eli bali.
Ngosuku olude lo nyaka 99 lwaluqhelekileyo. UKumkani wayedla isidlo sasemini waza waphuma waya endleleni eqhelekileyo yokuhamba ecaleni komgwaqo omkhulu. Kwaye yadutshulwa yinqanawa, umnikazi wayo, uBrian Smith, kulo mzuzwana waphazamiseka yinja yakhe kwisihlalo somgibeli. Akazange ambone umntu ohambayo, ekholelwa ukuba wayedonsa intshontsho, kwaye kuphela xa ebona iiglasi ezigazini ezithe zafika kwi-cabin zichaphazelekile, uSmith wazikhangela into engalunganga. I-ambulensi oogqirha abafika kuloo ndawo babengafuni ukuba uKumkani aphile ukuze abone isibhedlele ubuncinane: U-King of Horrors wafumana ukutyhulwa kwesandla sakhe sokunene ngokuphindwe kabini, izimbambo eziphukile, imiphunga ephukile kunye neentlobo ezilishumi emgodleni, ungakhankanyi isikhumba se-collarbone yakhe yesinene nentloko. Ukubuyiswa kwesibhedlele esibhedlele kuthathe phantse inyanga, kwaye uKumkani omva kwakhona uqala ukubhala iincwadi-ukulibala malunga nentlungu rhoqo. Uyabhala kwiiglasi ezifanayo, iiglasi eziye zasinda ngokumangalisayo ngengozi. "Xa ndafunda ezinye iinkcukacha kwi-biography kaMnu. Smith, othe wandibeka ngomonde kwindlela embi, ndacinga ngomsindo: ndoda, ndatshitshiswa ngumlingisi weencwadi zam!" - ukhumbula uKumkani kwiimemori zakhe.
Olu phuhliso lwenze ukuba inomxholo ogcweleyo
"I-Dream catcher", yacaciswa kwingxenye yokugqibela ye "Dark Tower" kunye namanye amabali. Yaye yonke into evuyisayo ye-post-traumatic syndrome ibhalwe ngumlobi kwincwadi ethi "Dyuma Ki", apho ingumalimi ongalungile ozama ukufumana ingcamango ebomini kwisipho somculi esivulwe ngokukhawuleza. Ukuba sibheka umlingisi ongenakukhathazeka uBryan Smith King, ngoko ke isigqibo sakhe sifike ngokucacileyo kwimfihlelo yovuyo. INkundla inqamle uSmith ilayisenisi yakhe yokuqhuba kwaye yamgweba kwiinyanga ezintandathu entolongweni. UKumkani wayengenelisekanga kakhulu kwesi sigwebo, kodwa ngonyaka kamva ubulungisa bunqoba; NgoSeptemba 21, uKumkani wabhiyozela ukuzalwa kwakhe kweminyaka engama-53, kwaye ngosuku olulandelayo uSmith ufunyanwe efile e-trailer yakhe. "Musa ukuxelela ukuba yinto engafanelekanga. Ndiqinisekile ukuba uSmith wafa ngomhla wama-21, "watsho uKumkani onempindiselo, owathi wathengela" efanayo iDodge neCaravan "efanayo ukuba azimise ngokwakhe phantsi komshini wokucoca. Izigidi azizange zitshintshe indlela yobomi bomlobi. Uhlala esinyanisekileyo kwilizwe elithandwayo laseMaine, apho ehlala nomfazi wakhe nanamhla, kanye ngonyaka, ehamba esiqhingini ngenxa yezigidi ezivela kummandla waseFlorida. Usenomdla ogula ngenxa yeBoston Red Soke, unxibe ijeans kwaye akasebenzisi ifowuni yeselula (izizathu zokungazithandi zichazwe ngokucacileyo kwincwadi "Inqamleza"). Uloyiko lokuhamba emoyeni, ukhangele iikati ezimnyama, kwaye inani 13 alisayi kucima ngokupheleleyo ukukhanya ebusuku. Nangona ubuhlungu bexesha elinokuphuka emathambo aphukile, uKumkani uzele iindidi ezahlukeneyo zeengcamango zobuciko, kubandakanywa nomculo we-blues "Ghost Brothers kusuka kwi-Darkland County" kunye nokudibanisa kwezinye iincwadi zakhe zokufunda kubantwana abasuka kwiminyaka emi-3 ukuya kweyimihlanu ubudala (oku kulukhuni ukukholelwa ekusebenzeni kwayo). Nangona kunjalo, izinto kunye neendawo ziyakwazi ukumxelela izimfihlo zabo ezimnyama kwaye usakwazi ukuwaxelela, oku kuthetha ukuba xa uvula incwadi yakhe entsha, akukho nto eseleyo kodwa ukuphinda emva kokumkani: "Ndiyakholwa Ndiyakholelwa kwiingwenya e-New York, ndikholelwa kwigesi ebulalayo ngaphakathi kweebhola ze-tennis, ndikholelwa kwihlabathi elingabonakaliyo ngokubanzi ... Kwaye kubaluleke kakhulu: Ndiyakholwa kwizigodlo ... ". Kwaye ungathini na ukuba ungakholelwa?
