Why read it?
1 author picked A Good Marriage as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
While technically a novella, this profoundly disturbing story takes inspiration from the notorious BTK killer of the 1970s. BTK, alias Dennis Rader, killed at least ten people, yet his wife of 34 years denied ever knowing anything about his murderous exploits. Stephen King develops the story to show what it would be like for a happily married wife to discover suddenly that her husband has a hitherto unknown, sinister hobby. A chilling and thought-provoking read.
From Jacqueline's list on The best and bloodiest true crimes that inspired fiction.
