Misery Synopsis
Estaba loca, pero él la necesitaba.
Paul Sheldon es un escritor que sufre un grave accidente y recobra el conocimiento en una apartada casa, donde vive una misteriosa mujer, capaz de cometer los mayores horrores.
Paul tendrá que luchar por su vida.
Misery Chastain ha muerto. Paul Sheldon la ha matado. Con alivio y hasta con alegría. Misery lo ha hecho rico. Porque Misery es la protagonista de sus exitosos libros.
Paul quiere volver a escribir. Algo diferente, algo auténtico. Pero entonces sufre un accidente y despierta inmóvil y atravesado por el dolor en una cama que no es la suya, tampoco la de un hospital.
Annie Wilkes lo ha recogido y lo ha traído a su remota casa de la montaña. La buena noticia es que Annie había sido enfermera y tiene medicamentos analgésicos. La mala es que durante mucho tiempo ha sido la fan número uno de Paul. Y cuando descubre lo que le ha hecho a Misery Chastain, no le gusta. No le gusta en absoluto.
Antes, Paul Sheldon escribía para ganarse la vida. Ahora, Paul Sheldon escribe para sobrevivir.

About Stephen King
Stephen King was born in Portland, Maine in 1947, the second son of Donald and Nellie Ruth Pillsbury King. He made his first professional short story sale in 1967 to Startling Mystery Stories. In the fall of 1973, he began teaching high school English classes at Hampden Academy, the public high school in Hampden, Maine. Writing in the evenings and on the weekends, he continued to produce short stories and to work on novels. In the spring of 1973, Doubleday & Co., accepted the novel Carrie for publication, providing him the means to leave teaching and write full-time. He has since published over 40 books and has become one of the world's most successful writers.
Stephen lives in Maine and Florida with his wife, novelist Tabitha King. They are regular contributors to a number of charities including many libraries and have been honored locally for their philanthropic activities.
Stephen King received the National Medal of Arts from US President Barack Obama on 10th September 2015. This is the highest award for artists given by the US government. Ahead of the ceremony Stephen King said, “I’m amazed and grateful.” Previous recipients of the National Medal of Arts include Ray Bradbury, John Updike, Philip Roth, Maurice Sendak, Harper Lee and Maya Angelou.
