Elevation
of Stephen King (Goodreads Author), Mark Edward Geyer (Illustrator)
Description
Although Scott Carey doesnât look any different, heâs been steadily losing weight. There are a couple of other odd things, too. He weighs the same in his clothes and out of them, no matter how heavy they are. Scott doesnât want to be poked and prodded. He mostly just wants someone else to know, and he trusts Doctor Bob Ellis.In the small town of Castle Rock, the setting of many of Kingâs most iconic stories, Scott is engaged in a low gradeâbut escalatingâbattle with the lesbians next door whose dog regularly drops his business on Scottâs lawn. One of the women is friendly; the other, cold as ice. Both are trying to launch a new restaurant, but the people of Castle Rock want no part of a gay married couple, and the place is in trouble. When Scott finally understands the prejudices they faceâincluding his ownâhe tries to help. Unlikely alliances, the annual foot race, and the mystery of Scottâs affliction bring out the best in people who have indulged the worst in themselves and others.
