Title: therapy catcher
Review: Mr. King obviously has a little anger to work out. In the first three chapters of the book, three of the four main characters are in major car acccidents, depressed, suicidal and just plain angry. While most people pay for therapy, Mr. King has obviously discovered a way to foment his anger about the universe and car accidents by writing about his own personal experiences, thinly veiled by the fiction the publisher prints.But the real problem with the book is not the story, the unfairness of the universe or aliens bopping into Maine. The problem of the book is simply that it is an ugly book. Characters in the book display no beauty, speak in an unending stream of four letter words and provide laughs through sophomoric stunts of farting and belching.I truly thought "The Sixth Mile" was one of the most uplifting pieces I have read. But obviously, "Dreamcatcher has not caught the dreams of beauty and truth.
