The Box
The Box: Uncanny Stories | Richard Matheson
6 posts | 13 read | 10 to read
What if you were told that you could make a fortune just by pushing a button on a box? But pressing this button will simultaneously cause the death of another human being somewhere in the world . . . someone you don't know. Would you still push the button? "Button, Button," Richard Matheson's chilling tale of greed and temptation, is now the basis of The Box, the new film from the director of Donnie Darko. In addition, this outstanding collection also contains many other unforgettable stories by Matheson, the award-winning author of I Am Legend and What Dreams May Come. "The inventive plots and spare but convincing portraits of ordinary men and women caught up in forces beyond their control demonstrate why Stephen King has called Matheson his most significant influence." --Publishers Weekly

The master of the twist Matheison is always worth a read. Even if the stories are a bit uneven.

You get a button. One push guarantees you $50,000 but someone you don't know will die. Do you truly, really know anyone in this world? So eerie, but the stories in this collection are some of my favorite, including Mute, which is one of my favorite Twilight Zone episodes! Matheson can write ANY genre and shows his comic side in a story about how Los Angeles is a living thing and takes over the whole world. Truly a great read!

I LOVE Richard Matheson & nothing beats his short stories! If you're a Stephen King fan, you'll appreciate Matheson's short stories even more...as in, some of them will sound eerily familiar...

Old sci-fi, I tell you.

PirateJenny Penguin Classics is coming out with a best of collection from him next month. It's fantastic. 7y
TheBookDream @PirateJenny Ooooo. Generally I try to collect vintage collections (first cheap and OMG the covers) but I may grab that. Didn't get this one because it was pretty filthy. Also, it was some sort of condensed version of another novel? Very weird 7y
PirateJenny @TheBookDream I adore vintage covers! But also.ew filthy books. I can say the collection has a gorgeous cover (I have my copy already because I worked on it and I need to check the ebook). I'll try to get some time to post it soon. 7y
