About This Book
A short, unusual novel from Stephen King. Scott Carey is losing weight—but his body's appearance doesn't change, and the scale keeps dropping no matter what he does. As he confronts his strange condition, he also works to reconcile his small town with his lesbian neighbours and their new restaurant. A novella-length meditation on community, death, and the supernatural.
