For if The Regulators is a work of secular horror, this is a novel of sacred horror (King's first), and explicitly so. With this astonishing work, King again proves himself the premier literary barometer of our cultural clime. 24 of The Regulators (Dutton Forecasts, June 17) and Desperation, he becomes the first bestselling author-maybe the first author ever-to issue three new major novels in one calendar year. Not only is he writing the first modern novel to be serialized in book form (The Green Mile), but with the publication on Sept. If the publishing industry named a Person of the Year, this year's winner would be Stephen King.
