More Dr. Sleep

Again, this is a youtube upload of King reading from Dr. Sleep. 

I really like the segment he read, it is very funny.  I am always taken aback that King is free to talk directly to the reader in his text.  It feels like there is a rule, somewhere, that you can't do that.  Note the way the clip begins -- he's talking so directly to the reader that it sounds like he's actually reading a speech to the audience.  That's one reason we love Stephen King!  He writes as if he were writing only for me.  The magic in King's writing is when it feels like he's just sitting across the table, telling you this messed up story, making you laugh and curl up in fear at the same time.

Oh yeah. . . here's the clip.  I'm posting this because it is much closer than previous posts.  Gigantic thanks to those of you who not only attended, but recorded for the rest of us to enjoy.
