LT's Theory of Pets

De: Stephen King

Narrado por: Stephen King

Stephen King delivers a haunting, heartfelt performance as he shares a story about the bonds between husbands, wives, and pets.

LT has a theory about pets, particularly his Siamese cat. It had been their cat not just his cat, but that was until he came home one day to a note on the fridge. His wife had left him.

The cat stayed behind...

Recorded live at London's Royal Festival Hall, LT's Theory of Pets demonstrates yet again that Stephen King is a master storyteller.©2001 Stephen King; (P)2001 Simon & Schuster Audio

A+++

I thought Stephen King was great, and love to see his humorous side. Very fun book, should make you laugh.

Love the story, love that Stephen King read it, but still hate the language!

Love this story. Stephen King is awesome reading this to the audience. I love his writing and always have. But I’ve always disliked his gratuitous use of vulgar language. His writing is beautiful on its own, there’s absolutely no use for the “rude” language as he calls it. Just wish he wouldn’t use it at all, but that’s me & not everyone thinks this way. Good story, great start and middle, and disturbing ending. Kind of like the two sentence story we had to read and analyze in English Lit class…never truly know what happens to LuLuBelle and never will.

A cute short story

If your trying out his writting and just want to see how he writes and are new to his work then this is a really great read! Also if you have a dog or a cat or know people who do this bring a funny new idea into light! I was pointed to this book by a friend after she said this is what made her start to read some of his works! Its a story that will have you luaghing but the ending is kinda strange! I love this book and being a young writter myself to be I honor this work! Its something that is really quite shocking for the Father of Horror!

Love king Reads

This was a good story, but what steaks it is King reading it himself! Love it!! Will listen to this over and over!

A short story as read by the author

Stephen King, in this live reading, tells the audience that this started out to be a funny story... but then, as much of his work does, it drifts into something else. Something more in King's wheelhouse. No, it's not straight up horror, nor is it straight up comedy. It's both, and neither, occupying that unsettling middle ground. Is that bad? Not at all. Is it good? I found it a pleasant listen. In the end, we see that King is, despite his detractors, a fine artist, masterful in using them to convey strong emotions with, seemingly no effort. The man can write.

Now for the rundown...
profanity? Some.... not excessive in my opinion
sex? Only discussed, if somewhat graphically.
violence? Implied and an aftermath of some is discussed.

Recommendation? For Stephen King fans, a definite buy.
For straight up horror fans, probably a pass
For someone looking for a short but interesting story with some light and dark moments, yes... this is a good fit.
