This is a rich tale, weaving magical humour, revisionist history, nostalgia and myth into one bright whole. Green Grass, Running Water’s timeless appeal has kept it flying off bookstore shelves since it was published in 1993. Enhanced with a P.S. section, this edition introduces a new generation of readers to King’s unique take on contemporary human experience.
