In this work, the English professor, born in Brazil, J. Angelini, presents us, in broad terms, with details of an unusual journey through the peculiar universe of Stephen King, the North American writer, recognized as one of the most notable short story writers of horror and fiction of his generation. His books have sold almost 400 million copies, with publications in more than 40 countries. In this unauthorized biography, the Brazilian writer addresses themes from his childhood, marked by the absence of Stephen King's father, and reveals his fears, such as his fear of clowns, which led him to write “IT: A Obra Prima do Medo”.

In this biography, the young King's first contacts with writing and his fight against drug addiction are also recovered. An impressive life story, from poverty to fortune, from loneliness to stardom. The unauthorized biography: “A brief biography about Stephen King”, demonstrates how King's life became a lesson in how to deal with existential fears, exercising control over these uncertainties, which are housed in the darkest dungeons of our unconscious, transforming fear into art.
