《Thinner》是美国作家 Stephen King 的恐怖小说，1984 年由 NAL 以 King 的笔名 Richard Bachman 出版。故事围绕律师 Billy Halleck 展开，他在一场交通事故中撞死了一名过马路的罗姆族女子，并因人脉关系逃脱了法律惩罚。然而，女子的父亲对 Halleck 施下诅咒，令他无法控制地消瘦下去。

……King 有几本书是以“Richard Bachman”这个笔名出的 [1]，虽然卖得比 Rowling 那本好一个数量级，但也比真正的 Stephen King 的书差一个数量级。《Thinner》卖了 2.5 万册，对一个“无名”作者来说听着挺厉害，说明 King 至少还是有点可复制的大众市场吸引力的。1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Bachman
…King did this for a few of his books as 'Richard Bachman' [1], although they did better than Rowling's by an order of magnitude, they also sold an order of magnitude worse than a real Stephen King book. Thinner selling 25,000 copies sounds pretty impressive for an 'unknown' author, suggesting King at least has some sort of repeatable mass-market appeal. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Bachman
……把同一部小说改编成比如 Netflix 版本，可能会拓展你的想象力，也可能让你看到导演版本对同一个故事的呈现有多局限。Stephen King 的惊悚小说《Pet Sematary》和《Thinner》，我后来看电影时就有这种感觉。
…of the same novel into, say Netflix, may expand your imagination and possibly show you how limited the director's version of the same story. I felt that with Stephen King's thrillers, Pet Sematary and Thinner, then watching them as movies.
