Stephen King

Misery

In the life of successful writer Paul Sheldon, there was only one woman whom he sincerely hated - the heroine of his melodramatic adventure novels, Misery Chastain. Having finally "killed" Misery and having celebrated the beginning of a new stage of creativity, the writer gets into a car accident on a dead end road. Having regained consciousness in the house of former nurse Annie Wilkes, his "most ardent admirer", a deranged maniac-killer, Paul Sheldon will understand what real hatred, pain and horror are and what price the author must pay for his creation.
