Dolores Claiborne

Author: Stephen King

Dolores Claiborne’s life was never easy, but she managed. Until that eclipse day when everything changed. Now, years later, she’s finally ready to tell her story. It’s a tale of hard work, abuse, and a mother’s fierce love. As I listened to Dolores recount her struggles on Little Tall Island, I felt drawn into her world of pain and resilience. King’s raw, unflinching prose brings her voice to life, making you feel every emotion. It’s not an easy read, but it’s one that will stay with you long after you close the book.

Sometimes being a bitch is all a woman’s got to hold on to.
