Roused by a single drop of blood, Rosie Daniels wakes up to the chilling realisation that her husband is going to kill her. And she takes flight - with his credit card.

Alone in a strange city, Rosie begins to build a new life: she meets Bill Steiner and she finds an odd junk shop painting, 'Rose Madder', which strangely seems to want her as much as she wants it.

But it's hard for Rosie not to keep looking over her shoulder. Rose-maddened and on the rampage, Norman is a corrupt cop with a dog's instinct for tracking people. And he's getting close. Rosie can feel just how close he's getting...

Write Up Regarding Books Rose Madder
3.5 Stars If you can handle a story of horrific abuse, Hannibal Lector's idea of a tasty dinner, and haunted dreams from the beyond, you're going to love ROSE MADDER. Norman "Bates" Daniels is a lunatic cop with a foul mouth and a sick, evil mind, and for wife Rose, a life of fear and pain begins the night of her honeymoon.......for the reader, it's almost immediate and a real shocker. Unprepared, terrified and alone, after 14 long years of living in hell, Rose finally flees for her life knowing

I just met crazy rivaling that of Annie Wilkes. Norman Daniels. Hes a special kind of nut.Turns out this book was better than I had anticipated. Maybe thats due to low expectations, seeing that many put this one towards the bottom of their personal King ratings. Introducing a preternatural painting within a story about spousal abuse is out there, maybe more so than his other books. But isnt that what King does so well? The painting did not necessarily overwhelm the narrative. It added a

My book club read this book last month. This is how book club went basically: Joy: Colleen, what was your favorite part of this book?Me: Well, Joy, I'll get to that in a few, but would anyone like some chocolate? (Passes around a bowl of chocolate until they are all staring at me expectantly. Reluctantly continues.) You know, Joy, Stephen King never disappoints. Every time I turned the page, there were more words that formed sentences. The kind of sentences that make up all of Stephen King's

I really believe that Rose Madder contains one of the most relentless, heart stopping pursuits in any novel anywhere, and - in Norman Daniels - the strongest villain in any of Kings work. King doesnt just describe Norman Danielss actions in Rose Madder; he gets inside the monsters head and in the process shows us the kind of thoughts that motivate a violent murderer. Rose McClendon married Norman right after high school, suffered a vicious bite from him on their wedding night, and from then on

This is Stephen King so of course I did enjoy it, simply because I love his writing, but I don't think this is one of his best.The story of an abused woman finally leaving her husband and him going after her is a good premise. For me, I just aren't convinced that the "supernatural" aspect of the story added anything extra. It was entertaining enough for me without the "magic" painting and everything that came with that.I did enjoy the way in which the author portrayed Rose. She began as a weak

Stephen King once famously proclaimed himself the Big Mac and fries of literature meaning his works are popular and enjoyable, albeit perhaps lacking in nourishment. I heartily disagree with that assessment, for the most part. Novels such as IT, Dolores Claiborne, and The Dead Zone are intricate, multi-layered masterstrokes; methinks King is too modest in regards to his own creations. However. . . the Maine author's observation does hold true in a few select cases. Christine is a barrel of fun,

Now I remember why I didn't like this the first time I read it. It wears out its welcome a good 60 pages before the end. We get our denouement, and then we're made to wade through a goodly chunk of book before we can call it done. Still, Rose Madder is okay. I think what keeps this book pretty middle of the road for me is Norman Daniels, our cliched villain. King has three types of male antagonists: women beaters, child molesters, and racists. Norman Daniels suffers from the former and the
