    A dying young playwright staying in a turn-of-the-century hotel becomes captivated by a painting of a beautiful stage actress from the previous century. Obsessed, he begins to study everything he can about the woman and her time and becomes convinced he belongs with her. Through self-hypnosis, he transports himself to 1896, where he finds the soul mate he was fated to meet. But will he be able to stay?

    Story

    It took about half the book to finally get to the main story line. The pace of the story just to slow for me. I was tempted many times to turn it off and switch to another book, but I kept hoping it would get better and speed up. It didn't. The Narration didn't help much either. The main character came off as whiny, and pathetic. So it was difficult to get on his side, and 'cheer him on.' If you love the movie like I do....save yourself the trouble and just go watch it again rather then listen to this book. This is the first Audible.com purchase that I don't plan on ever listening to again.

    Made into the acclaimed film Stand By Me, The Body is a mesmerizing tale of four young boys and their quest to find a dead body, never realizing how much death will affect their lives and their friendship.

    If you loved the movie Stand by Me, then you must listen to this book. Get some additional background and insight into one of the best movies ever made. Frank Muller is also one of the best narrators for Stephen King. Very enjoyable.
