Mr. Harrigan's Phone
📚 I was reading “Hollie”, by Stephen King when a character from “If It Bleeds”, a collection of King’s four short novellas, was mentioned by Hollie and I found out she appears in that book, too. So I started reading it — temporarily pausing “Hollie”.
Now, I’ve just read “Mr. Harrigan’s Phone”, the first of the four novellas in the book (not the one where Hollie appears, though), and I had to write about this: Mr. King, one of my all-time favorite authors, is a hell of a storyteller! That story, that I found out was turned into a Netflix movie, was very good — it flowed so well that, when I saw it, it had already finished.
Now I’ll watch the movie, as well. It probably won’t be as good as the novella (to me movies never beat their paper counterparts), but I’m sure it’ll yet be nice.
