”Cujo” is a psychological horror novel
by Stephen King. The story focuses on the Trenton family: Vic, an
advertisement designer, his wife, Donna, and their son Tad. The
latter two are terrorized by the eponymous Cujo, a rabid St.
Bernard. The narrative takes place in the author's recurrent
fictional town of Castle Rock, Maine, and is interspersed with
vignettes from the seemingly mundane lives of other residents.
There are no official chapters, but rather breaks in between
passages, which indicate when the author is alternating to a
different point of view.
”Cujo” also references King's previous
novel, ”The Dead Zone”,on several
occasions. For instance, serial killer Frank Dodd has now achieved
a kind of bogeyman status in Castle Rock.
Cujo's name was based on the nom de guerre of Willie Wolfe, one
of the men responsible for orchestrating Patty Hearst's kidnapping
and indoctrination into the Symbionese Liberation Army.
Stephen King discusses Cujo in On Writing, referring to it as a
novel he "barely remembers writing at all". The book was written
during a period when King was drinking heavily. Somewhat wistfully,
King goes on to say that he likes the book and that he wishes he
could remember enjoying the good parts as he put them down on the
page.
