ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Misery, by Stephen King, tells the story of Paul Sheldon, a successful novelist who is held captive by his self-proclaimed number-one fan, Annie Wilkes. After a car accident, Paul finds himself in Annie's remote home, where she nurses him back to health. However, her care comes with a dark twist: she is obsessed with his Misery novels and demands that he write a new one just for her, forcing him to bring the character back to life. Paul is trapped in a desperate situation, having to write to survive. The book explores the themes of obsession, control, and the complex relationship between creators and their audience, blurring the lines between reality and fiction.
