The #1 national bestseller for Stephen King's rabid fans, Cujo 'hits the jugular' (The New York Times) with the story of a friendly Saint Bernard that is bitten by a sick bat. Get ready to meet the most hideous menace ever to savage the flesh and devour the mind. Outside a peaceful town in central Maine, a monster is waiting. Cujo is a two-hundred-pound Saint Bernard, the best friend Brett Camber has ever had. One day, Cujo chases a rabbit into a cave inhabited by sick bats and emerges as something new altogether. Meanwhile, Vic and Donna Trenton, and their young son Tad, move to Maine. They are seeking peace and quiet, but life in this small town is not what it seems. As Tad tries to fend off the terror that comes to him at night from his bedroom closet, and as Vic and Donna face their own nightmare of a marriage on the rocks, there is no way they can know that a monster, infinitely sinister, waits in the daylight. What happens to Cujo, how he becomes a horrifying vortex inescapably drawing in all the people around him, makes for one of the most heart-stopping novels Stephen King has ever written. Cujo will forever change how you view man's best friend.… (altro)

Not quite the story I was expecting as Cujo plays on a small, though vital, role. Characters didn't really hook me in this one. Not bad but not great either. Bit of a meh book that I can't say I'd recommend. ( )

Wow! I never thought I'd say I didn't like a Stephen King book...but here it is. The characters were whiny, and annoying, and borderline, to not so borderline, abusive. I didn't like a one of them....I just couldn't wait for this thing to be over. ( )

Is this a horror? or is it a tragedy?
Poor Cujo having to be in so much pain.

On a scale of 1-10, how much of a terrible person am I for feeling more upset about the dog than the child? I was so sick and tired of Tad lmao ( )

Durante toda su vida Cujo fue un buen perro, un San Bernardo grandote, pacífico, juguetón y amante de los niños. Realmente se trataba de un perro bueno y feliz. Feliz hasta que le sucedió algo, y el cerebro de perro de Cujo se cubrió de una de esas oscuridades que se alimentan de sangre. Ahora, se ha convertido en un perro asesino; doblemente cruel por cuanto la gente no conoce su mutación y aún le ve en su anterior bondad. Heraldo de un pequeño Apocalipsis, Cujo desencadenará sobre un pueblo modélico un huracán de pánico y de muerte.

THAT ENDING WAS FUCKING BULLSHIT THOUGH. I kinda wanna leave my review at that and just finish with this pic, but fine I won't... still, the book had to be punished:



Just ... UGH. NO. It couldn't end like that. WHYYYY?????

Anyway, even though I of course knew that this book was about a dog with rabies, it turns out I didn't know anything besides that. I didn't even know it was a huge-ass Saint Bernhard that was the dog, for some reason I pictured something much smaller? I think that had to do with a children's book that traumatized me as a kid: it also involved a dog with rabies that bit someone. Though I don't think they died from it.

OH WELL, up until the ending I thought the book was really good (oh wait, didn't my Stephen King loving friends all warn me about this? GODSDAMNIT). All the characters' stories nicely fit with each other, you kept despairing with Donna and feeling completely stressed out when no one came to her rescue. GAH.

But still, that fucking ending. Maybe I should even subtract a point. IT'S NOT FAIR. ( )

About suffering they were never wrong,
The Old Masters: how well they understood
Its human position; how it takes place
While someone else is eating or opening a window or just walking dully along...

—W.H. AUDEN, "Musée des Beaux Arts"
Old Blue died and he died so hard
He shook the ground in my back yard.
I dug his grave with a silver spade
And I lowered him down with a golden chain.
Every link you know I did call his name,
I called, "Here, Blue, you good dog, you."

—FOLK SONG
"Nope, nothing wrong here."
—THE SHARP CEREAL PROFESSOR

This book is for my brother, David, who held my hand crossing West Broad Street, and who taught me how to make skyhooks out of old coathangers. The trick was so damned good I just never stopped.

I love you, David.
