Día 1 de octubre: Dios está en los cielos, la bolsa está a 10.140, la mayoría de los vuelos llegan a tiempo y Clayton Riddell, un artista de Maine, casi salta de alegría por Boylston Street, en Boston. Acaba de firmar un contrato para ilustrar un cómic que le permitirá mantener a su familia con su arte en vez de tener que dar clases. Ya ha comprado un regalo pequeño (¡pero caro!) a su sufrida mujer y tiene claro lo que va a regalar a su hijo Johnny. ¿Por qué no algo para sí mismo? Clay presiente que todo va a ir mejor a partir de entonces. Pero bruscamente se trantorna todo: se produce una devastación masiva, causada por un fenómeno que más adelante llamarán El Pulso, que se reproduce a través del teléfono móvil. De todos los teléfonos móviles. Clay junto a unos cuantos supervivientes desesperados, se encuentra arrojado a una edad oscura, rodeados por el caos, la hecatombe y una masa humana degradada a su estado más primitivo. Parece que no hay forma de escapar a esta pesadilla. Sin embargo, una flecha indica a Clay el camino de su casa en Maine; mientras él y sus compañeros de viaje avanzan entre escenas espeluznantes hacia el norte, empiezan a ver los crudos signos que confirman la dirección: KASHWAK = NO-FO. Una promesa, quizás. O una amenaza. Hay miles de millones de teléfonos móviles en el mundo. ¿Quién no tiene uno? Esta novela fascinante, absorbente y cruel de Stephen King no solamente hace la pregunta "¿Me oyes ahora?", sino también responde, y de una forma muy, muy inquietante.

Paperback. Condición: Good. From international bestseller Stephen King, a high-concept, ingenious and terrifying story about the mayhem unleashed when a pulse from a mysterious source transforms all cell phone users into homicidal maniacs. There's a reason cell rhymes with hell. On October 1, God is in His heaven, the stock market stands at 10,140, most of the planes are on time, and Clayton Riddell, an artist from Maine, is almost bouncing up Boylston Street in Boston. He's just landed a comic book deal that might finally enable him to support his family by making art instead of teaching it. He's already picked up a small (but expensive ) gift for his long-suffering wife, and he knows just what he'll get for his boy Johnny. Why not a little treat for himself? Clay's feeling good about the future. That changes in a hurry. The cause of the devastation is a phenomenon that will come to be known as The Pulse, and the delivery method is a cell phone. Everyone's cell phone. Clay and the few desperate survivors who join him suddenly find themselves in the pitch-black night of civilization's darkest age, surrounded by chaos, carnage, and a human horde that has been reduced to its basest nature.and then begins to evolve. There's really no escaping this nightmare. But for Clay, an arrow points home to Maine, and as he and his fellow refugees make their harrowing journey north they begin to see crude signs confirming their direction. A promise, perhaps. Or a threat. There are 193 million cell phones in the United States alone. Who doesn't have one? Stephen King's utterly gripping, gory, and fascinating novel doesn't just ask the question Can you hear me now? It answers it with a vengeance. Nº de ref. del artículo: 00109221746
