Misery: A Novel

Fruit Fly is a sharp, darkly humorous story about a washed-up author who will stop at nothing to return to relevancy, even steal someone else’s story. Unsurprisingly, there are plenty of books about books, writers, and the writing process – and not everyone gets their own happy ending. If you liked reading Josh Silver’s Fruit Fly, check out these other books that will give you the same feeling…or inspire you to write the next great novel.

Stephen King has become one of literature’s most complex cases: once more or less the only horror writer everyone has read, he’s evolved into a subtle master of letters who moves nimbly between literary novels, fantasy, mystery, horror and books that combine all of the above.
