Additional Book Info
The
Secretary of Dreams combines classic tales of terror from the mind
of Stephen King with the critically acclaimed artwork of Maine
artist Glenn Chadbourne. This unique book displays an incredible and
original blend of King's words with Chadbourne's one-of-a-kind
illustrations: text and artwork brought together to tell these
stories in a whole new way.
As you venture into The Secretary of Dreams you'll discover "Home
Delivery," "Jerusalem's Lot," and "The Reach" presented on
beautifully designed over-sized pages. These stories are heavily
illustrated with spot artwork, full page illustrations, and even
multiple-page art spreads. Dozens of painstakingly crafted
illustrations bring King's characters to life
Also within this collection are "The Road Virus Heads North," "Rainy
Season," and "Uncle Otto's Truck," which appear for the very first
time in full graphic format as imagined by Chadbourne. Not one word
from King's original manuscripts has been left out. Instead
Chadbourne presents the stories through a variety of techniques:
traditional paragraphs of text merged directly into the artwork,
handwritten bursts of dialogue to convey emotion, and even multiple
fonts to match the mood of each scene.
The Secretary of Dreams is a collection of Stephen King's greatest
short stories presented in a way never before imagined. Glenn
Chadbourne spent over two years creating the artwork within these
pages, digging deep inside the text to make each of these classic
tales burst off the page. An original Cemetery Dance Publications
publishing event, this deluxe oversized hardcover edition is the
World's First Edition -- and the only edition planned anywhere at
this time.
