Decades after starring in the film adaptation, Wil Wheaton narrates an all-new recording of the story that shaped a generation!

#1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King's timeless novella The Body, originally published in his 1982 collection Different Seasons and adapted into the 1986 film classic Stand by Me, now available as a stand-alone edition.

Four rambunctious young boys venture into the Maine woods in search of a boy from a nearby town who has disappeared. Gordie Lachance and his three friends set out on a quest to find the missing boy's body along the railroad tracks. The Body is set outside King's iconic fictional town of Castle Rock, which is the setting of many of King's most popular books including It and The Stand, and Castle Rock, a 10-episode Hulu original series, based on King's short stories. King's The Body is an iconic coming of age story that explores the loneliness and isolation of young adulthood.

Kritikerstimmen

"King’s coming-of-age story about four boys on the verge of adolescence, searching for a missing neighbor's body, is poignant, heartbreaking, and profound. Actor Wil Wheaton’s youthful tone and casual pacing bring the gang to life with empathy and bittersweet tenderness. Wheaton portrays Gordie, Chris, Teddy, and Vern as they walk along the railway tracks, something that becomes a defining moment in their lives and resonates into adulthood. Adapted into the film Stand by Me, which starred Wheaton, this reflection on life in a dying factory town in Maine during the late 1950s serves as a record of a long-ago time."
