The Cambers' once-friendly St. Bernard turns into a killer after being bitten by a rabid bat. Donna Trenton's husband is in New York trying to contain a disastrous ad campaign. Feeling abandoned by her workaholic husband, who is frequently out of town, Donna Trenton embarks on an affair with a local handyman. Left to fend for herself, she takes her ailing Pinto to Joe Cambers' garage for repairs only to be trapped with her son Tad in the sweltering car by the monstrous dog. ([source][1])

Cujo es maravillosa y entrañable.

No me hizo sentir miedo del San Bernardo, sino pena y ternura. Describe magistralmente como debe sentirse la rabia, y el amor de perro. AMOR.

Amable y enorme San Bernardo que tras infectarse de rabia de manera fortuita causa el terror en una familia rota. Todos pierden, todo es dolor. Todo es sentimiento.

Excelente lectura de fin de semana, lo acabas en 2 o 3 patadas.

"Cujo" ei ole eesti keeles ilmunud. Aga võiks. Sest olenevalt audientsist on seda raamatut pandud nii naistekate kui horrori alla. Mõlemad variandid on õiged. Tähendab, tahtsin ütelda, et valed. Aga sellest kriban hiljem pikemalt...

Stephen King ütles oma "Kirjutamisest" raamatus, et tal on kahju, et ei mäleta midagi selle raamatu loomeprotsessist. Nimelt jõi ta sel eluperioodil korralikult ning mõne raamatu kirjutamise kohapeal on hägu. Millest on tal endal kahju, kuna üle lugedes tundus raamat kirjanikule täitsa meeldiv. Cujo on raamatus koera nimi, päriselt on ajaloos olnud inimene nimega Willie Wolfe, kelle hüüdnimi oli samuti Cujo, kes on läinud ajalukku mitme sündmusega, muuhulgas ka pantvangidraamaga. Koer Cujo seikleb ka teistes Kingi raamatutes, leiab teda näiteks "Needful Things"-is ja "Pet Sematary"-is ning lisaks veel paaris teoses.

"Cujo" ilmus aastal 1981, 1982 sai British Fantasy Award ulmeauhinna. Stiililt on tegu psühholoogilise õudusega, kus ulmeelement on olemas, aga mitte domineeriv. Raamatu järgi on aastal …

I expected this to be scarier. Not that it was bad in any way, but it was not at all what I had been expecting when I picked it up. Instead of giving me nightmares, it just made me sad.
Easily the most realistic Stephen King book I've ever read, though I'm disinclined to believe that is an entirely positive statement.
