The Body by Stephen King

from Being Bookish

It’s 1960, in the fictional town of Castle Rock, Maine. Ray Brower, a boy from a nearby town, has disappeared, and twelve-year-old Gordie Lachance and his three friends set out on a quest to find his body along the railroad tracks. During the course of their journey, Gordie, Chris Chambers, Teddy Duchamp, and Vern Tessio come to terms with death and the harsh truths of growing up in a small factory town that doesn’t offer much in the way of a future. Join me and my guest, Lorraine, as we talk about this book, school bullies and a little about the 1986 film, Stand by Me. And we don't spoil the ending!
