The Books Oracle

Cujo

by Stephen King

A friendly Saint Bernard contracts rabies and transforms into a monster, trapping a mother and son in a broken-down car during a sweltering summer. King strips his horror to primal essentials: isolation, maternal terror, and an inexorable threat. A visceral siege narrative that examines the fragility of suburban safety and the animal violence lurking beneath domesticity.
