书籍简介

斯蒂芬·金的《查克的一生》是一部“非凡的”（《今日美国》）关于人生和传奇的故事——如今，该书已被改编成一部由迈克·弗拉纳根执导，汤姆·希德勒斯顿、马克·哈米尔、切瓦特·埃加福特和凯伦·吉兰主演的剧情片，将于2025年8月在英国上映。该书将于6月初次以精美的独立版本发行。这部令人难忘、令人费解的故事起初收录于广受好评的短篇小说集《如果流血》中，以倒叙的方式展开，带领读者了解查尔斯·“查克”·克兰兹非凡的一生。

在一个饱受自然灾害、基础设施崩溃和大规模恐慌困扰的摇摇欲坠的世界里，奇怪的广告牌和广告出现在城镇各处：“查尔斯·克兰兹。伟大的三十九年。谢谢你，查克！”马蒂·安德森是一位学校老师，他对这些信息着迷不已，因为这个世界与查克的生命有着莫名的联系，似乎正走向终结。

《查克的一生》以倒序呈现的三幕故事，探索了一个男人的过去。我们看到他已是中年，在波士顿出差时，被一位街头艺人引诱，跳起了一段华丽的街头舞。我们看到他还是孩子时，在一个被可怕秘密困扰的房子里，和祖母学习跳舞。

在这些文字中，金提醒我们，生活中的日常乐趣之所以更加辉煌，是因为它们转瞬即逝：在经历了一连串灰暗的日子后，迎来了一个美丽的晴空万里的好运；舞步精彩无瑕时带来的愉悦；一次偶然的相遇。金描绘纯粹快乐的能力，远胜于他让我们感到恐惧的能力。 《查克的一生》现已成为一部热门电影，并荣获多伦多国际电影节人民选择奖。这部影片讲述了一个关于社区和人性光辉的故事，颂扬了喜悦、神秘、存在主义的奇迹以及我们每个人身上蕴含的多重力量。

Stephen King's 'The Life of Chuck' is a 'phenomenal' (USA Today) tale of life and legacy - and now a feature film directed by Mike Flanagan and starring Tom Hiddleston, Mark Hamill, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Karen Gillan out in the UK from August 2025. Available for the first time in a beautiful standalone edition in June. Originally featured in the acclaimed story collection If It Bleeds, this unforgettable, mind-bending tale unfolds in reverse, taking readers through the extraordinary life of Charles 'Chuck' Krantz.

In a crumbling world plagued by natural disasters, collapsing infrastructure, and mass panic, bizarre billboards and advertisements appear throughout town: 'Charles Krantz. Thirty-nine great years. Thanks, Chuck!' Marty Anderson, a schoolteacher, becomes obsessed with these messages as the world, inexplicably linked to Chuck's life, seems to be approaching its end.

Told in three acts, presented in reverse order, The Life of Chuck explores one man's past. We see him in middle age on a business trip in Boston as he is seduced by a busker into spinning a gorgeous sidewalk dance. And we see him as a child, in a house haunted by a terrible secret, learning to dance with his grandmother.

In these pages King reminds us that life's quotidian pleasures are even more glorious because they are fleeting: the outrageous good fortune of a beautiful blue day after a string of gray ones; the delight of dancing when every move feels perfect; a serendipitous meeting. King's ability to describe pure joy rivals his ability to terrify us. Now a major motion picture and winner of the Toronto International Film Festival People's Choice Award, The Life of Chuck is a glorious story about community and about humanity at its best, a celebration of joy, mystery, existential wonder, and the multitudes contained in all of us.
