Episode Twenty-Four - The Long Walk w/Julia Marchese (Host of the Horror Movie Survival Guide, Director of I Know What You Need)

The Constant Reader Podcast - The Canon of Stephen King

Much gratitude to Julia Marchese of the Horror Movie Survival Guide and the director and guiding light behind the forthcoming 'Dollar Baby' adaptation of Stephen King's shot story I Know What You Need. Together Julia and I battled technical difficulties (after my interview with Stewart O Nan I think I might be jinxed, or at least have gremlins in the recoding equipment) and we eventually got around to talking about King's cult novella of death, sex and sports, The Long Walk. Julia explained how a book written in the 1960s still reads fresh, and we both marvel at how just darn good that King fellow could write, even as a teenager.

And a huge thank you to The Long Walk obsessive Pat Coston for his tireless research into the novella, it was invaluable.
