This novella became the movie Stand by Me.Finally, a disgraced woman is determined to triumph over death in "The Breathing Method.""The wondrous readability of his work, as well as the instant sense of communication with his characters, are what make Stephen King the consummate storyteller that he is," hailed the Houston bronicle about Different Seasons.
