Overview

Una historia apocalíptica e hipnótica.
 
Es una soleada mañana de otoño en la pequeña ciudad de Chester’s Mill, Claudette Sanders disfruta de su clase de vuelo y Dale Barbara, hace autostop en las afueras. Ninguno de los dos llegará a su destino.

De la nada ha caído sobre la ciudad una barrera invisible como una burbuja cristalina inquebrantable. Al descender, ha cortado por la mitad a una marmota y ha amputado la mano a un jardinero. El avión que pilotaba Claudette ha chocado contra la cúpula y se ha precipitado al suelo envuelto en llamas. Dale Barbara, veterano de la guerra de Irak, debe regresar ahora a Chester’s Mill, el lugar que tanto deseaba abandonar.

El ejército pone a Dale al cargo de la situación pero Big Jim Rennie, el hombre que tiene un pie en todos los negocios sucios de la ciudad, no está de acuerdo; la cúpula podría ser la respuesta a sus plegarias.

A medida que la comida, la electricidad y el agua escasean, los niños comienzan a tener premoniciones escalofriantes. El tiempo se acaba para aquellos que viven bajo la cúpula. ¿Podrán averiguar qué ha creado tan terrorífica prisión antes de que sea demasiado tarde?

Meet the Author

Stephen King
Stephen King
Stephen King es el maestro indiscutible de la narrativa de terror contemporánea, con más de treinta libros publicados. En 2003 fue galardonado con la medalla de la National Book Foundation por su contribución a las letras estadounidenses, y en 2007 recibió el Grand Master Award, que otorga la asociación Mystery Writers of America (Escritores de novelas de misterio de América). Entre sus títulos más célebres cabe destacar El misterio de Salem’s Lot, El resplandor, La zona muerta, Ojos de fuego, It, Maleficio, La milla verde, Cell y las siete novelas que componen el ciclo La torre oscura. Vive en Bangor, Maine, con su esposa Tabitha King, también novelista.

Biography

Fiction powerhouse Stephen Edwin King was born in Portland, Maine, in 1947. As a student at the University of Maine at Orono, he wrote a weekly column for the school newspaper, became active in political causes, and met his wife, the former Tabitha Spruce. In the early years of his marriage, King augmented his meager teacher's salary by selling short stories to men's magazines. Then, in 1973 he hit pay dirt: his novel Carrie was accepted for publication, and a major paperback deal provided the means for him to leave teaching and concentrate full-time on writing. Since then, the prolific author has never looked back.

Dubbed the Master of the Macabre for his domination of the horror genre, King has also written bestselling thrillers, mysteries, fantasies, novellas, and short stories, many of which have been turned into blockbuster films and miniseries (A partial list includes Carrie, The Shining, The Stand,, Misery, It, The Shawshank Redemption, The Langoliers, Stand by Me, and The Green Mile). He also has two works of nonfiction to his credit: a gorgeously crafted memoir/scribbler's how-to (On Writing) and Faithful, a chronicle of the Boston Red Sox' stellar 2004 season, cowritten with Stewart O'Nan. In 2003, he received the National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters.

In between books, the indefatigable King performs in the Rock Bottom Remainders, a rock band that includes among its rotating personnel fellow authors Dave Barry and Amy Tan; attends as many Boston Red Sox games as is humanly possible; and contributes with his wife, Tabitha, to many local and national charities.

Good To Know

Don't believe everything you read about Stephen King. Among the gossip circulating about the scribe is the rumor that he is going blind. King assures his fans that while he is genetically predisposed to a disease called macular degeneration, which could result in blindness, he is not actually going blind.

King is probably one of the most easily recognizable authors alive, and it's not just because of his string of bestsellers. King has appeared in a number of films based on his work, including Pet Semetary, Thinner, and The Stand.

If you've ever wondered why Stephen King has written several books under the pseudonym Richard Bachman, there is actually a very simple explanation: King is so prolific that he felt it necessary to create an alter-ego so that he could publish more than one book a year. The name was a hastily hobbled together combination of writer Richard Stark (ironically, a pseudonym for Donald Westlake) and Randy Bachman of rock group Bachman-Turner Overdrive.

    A dos mil pies de altura, donde Claudette Sanders disfrutaba de su clase de vuelo, la pequeña localidad de Chester’s Mill relucía bajo la luz de la mañana como algo recién hecho y servido. Los coches avanzaban lentamente a lo largo de Main Street entre destellos de sol. El campanario de la iglesia de la Congregación parecía lo bastante afilado para perforar el inmaculado cielo. El sol recorría la superficie del arroyo Prestile mientras el Seneca V lo sobrevolaba: avioneta y agua cruzando la ciudad a lo largo del mismo curso diagonal.
     —¡Chuck, me parece que veo a dos niños junto al Puente de la Paz! ¡Pescando! —Se sentía tan feliz que se rió.
     Las clases de vuelo habían sido cortesía de su marido, que era primer concejal del pueblo. Pese a ser de la opinión de que si Dios hubiese querido que el hombre volara le habría dado alas, Andy era un hombre sumamente maleable, y al final Claudette se había salido con la suya. Había disfrutado de la experiencia desde el primer momento. Pero aquello no era mero disfrute; aquello era euforia. Ese día, por primera vez, había comprendido de verdad qué hacía que volar fuera algo tan extraordinario. Qué lo hacía tan genial.
     Chuck Thompson, su instructor, movió la palanca con suavidad y después señaló el tablero de mandos.
    —No lo dudo —dijo—, pero hay que volar cara arriba, Claudie,
¿vale?
    —Perdón, perdón.
    —No pasa nada. —Llevaba años enseñando a volar y le gustaban los alumnos como Claudie, esos que estaban ansiosos por aprender algo nuevo. A Andy Sanders eso podría costarle una fortuna dentro de poco; a su mujer le encantaba el Seneca y había expresado su deseo de tener uno igual que aquel pero nuevo. Un aparato como ese debía de costar alrededor de un millón de dólares. Aunque no era lo que se dice una consentida, no se podía negar que Claudie Sanders tenía unos gustos bastante caros que Andy, un hombre afortunado, parecía satisfacer sin problemas.     
    A Chuck también le gustaban los días como ese: visibilidad ilimitada, nada de viento, condiciones perfectas para una clase. Aun así, el Seneca se sacudió un poco cuando su alumna se pasó corrigiendo la posición.
    —Cuidado, ten siempre en mente pensamientos alegres. Ponte a ciento veinte. Sigamos por la carretera 119. Y desciende hasta novecientos. Eso hizo ella, dejando el Seneca una vez más en perfecto equilibrio. Chuck se relajó.
    Pasaron por encima de Coches de Ocasión Jim Rennie y luego dejaron atrás el pueblo. A ambos lados de la 119 había campos y árboles llenos de color. La sombra cruciforme del Seneca aceleraba sobre el asfalto, un ala oscura rozó brevemente a una hormiga humana con una mochila a la espalda. La hormiga humana miró hacia arriba y saludó. Chuck le devolvió el saludo, aunque sabía que aquel tipo no podía verlo.
     —¡Joder, hace un día espléndido! —exclamó Claudie.
     Chuck se rió.
     Solo les quedaban cuarenta segundos de vida.
