Agreed, but on the other hand if you have to travel a lot nothing beats being able to have an e-book reader with a whole bunch of books on at once. Light, compact, and the battery on the kindle brand lasts for weeks between charges. E book readers are also an inexpensive way to get a lot of classic books for which the copyright has expired.
CroweDharmaReloaded No. You're describing nostalgia about the times when there were no alternatives to paper books. People should want more people to read. Electronic books help with that and make life easier for everyone. It also lets more people get their books out. You can get a lot of data from e-books when others have highlighted passages. Electronic books are a good development in literature.
Anon54387 And don't forget about those of us who simply cannot carry dozens of books around, and who literally do not have space to store books at home. E-books are a God sent
FINALLY they gave SK a soft chair! When he talked to Lee Childs, he was sitting on a hard chair, and you could tell he was hurting.... don't people know he has chronic pain from the van accident?
Being able to watch these two, have a vibrant discussion about life, books and politics. All from my recliner chair during ‘quarantine’, is why I absolutely love TH-cam. Thanks for posting! Begins at 11:00
My two favourite authors in one room is a dream come true. When Grisham spoke something about no one reading all of King's books I said "I have." These two men are such impressive storytellers. I hope they never retire from writing.
I've read everything except the Dark Tower series. For some reason, I never could break into them. I've read most of Grisham, but King is my favourite author and Grisham just tells pretty good legal adventure stories.
In the words of Stephen King, 'You read all my books? I feel bad for you.' I hope that you've also read the greatest stories ever written over the last 3,000 years because, if you spent all those years reading 10,000 pages of Stephen King instead of something really real like Homer or Shakespeare, then I feel very bad for you. It's like reading Twilight instead of The Lord of the Rings. Half of King's books are about 700 pages long and not worth it, objectively.
Two of the greatest authors of the 20th and 21st century. Their books and movies will never be old. They are so good and they will not be with us forever. Stephen in 71 now in 2019. Thank you for having this history.
Even his books have a heart like the Stand and The Body, they probably dont realize that he wrote The Green Mile and Shawshank Redemption. They just read his horrors, which btw are supposed to disturb someone, doesn't mean he's a sicko
'...most of my clients went to jail, despite brilliant representation'. 'Stephen King is in the house...'Its by fate I ended up here. These are two humble beings that always stick to their roots. Love 'em both. Our school library has most of their earlier books; hardcover and paperback.
Two incredibly talented and amazing men, humble and funny as well. Simple yet detailed conversation that's also interesting. They spoke about there always being a demand for printed books. There is no substitute for holding a book in your hands, turning pages and seeing your progress as each page as you make your way to the end. I need to have hardcover copies of the books I read.
As an amateur writer, (meaning I'm the only reader of my stuff), I found 'The Litigators' by Grisham to be an excellent example of character creation and development. I re-read 'The Litigators' every year. The other is Stephen King's, 'On Writing'. The unflinching discipline described by Stephen King is awe inspiring. Not long after reading Mr. King's 'On Writing,' I got on an elevator heading down to the lobby at the Four Seasons Hotel in Boston. Mr. King was there with a couple of friends, wearing a worn, regulation type Boston Red Sox cap, discussing the Sox game they would be attending later that night.
Back in the 80's when I was in junior high my mom was concerned that all I wanted to read was Stephen King. She said something to my reading teacher at parent teacher conferances about it. He told her Stephen King is probably one of the greatest writers of our time and will probably go down in history next to Mark Twain. The fact that I was that young and had read that many novels and short stories is amazing. He said who cares what he is reading, he is reading and understands what he is reading let him have at it. He told her he sees kids that are in their teens and never read a novel before. Your kid read "Eye of the Needle" in the fourth grade! After that he started reading King's short stories to us in class. Best teacher I ever had. Then he married my second favorite teacher our band director which would have been awesome except for whatever reason the moved after they got married. I was happy and pissed at the same time lol.
Lol. College. 1984. I happened to memtion Stephen King's name in a paper. The professor gave me a C+ because, as he wrote on the paper, if I think King is a good author I had a lot to learn. Lol.
@@gregrobertson1292 I guess I would ask how many books your professor has sold. Or how many awards he has won. Or his students for that matter. Regardless of what he thinks about the man it is hard to deny King's success as a writer. Then again I suppose if you asked King if he was a good technical writer or a good role model he would probably tell you no.
Loved this interview they are both great authors. Love them both. Loved the interaction between the two. I have to say that I too still want a real book not Ebooks. Especially love the books in hardback. To me I have to have the book in my hand it just reads so much better and is so much better. A world without real books would be a nightmare to me.
I love Books on paper. And thank you for posting this fascinating, wonderful conversation between two great writers. (Their sense of humor is priceless!)
Got to see King live in Dayton, Ohio in June----LOVED that evening hearing him speak----but this is equally awesome, as I'm a huge John Grisham fan too....
When I was in high school we had a reading room for a credit in English. Choose from racks of paperback. Sit in silence and read for an hour, year round. This reading time moved me forward to become a journalist of 30 years, a script writer, a story writer with music and most of all the passion of reading books....but mostly the courage to write books. This concept can be used in all schools and all grades. It was a time to read books at our own pace and choose our own books and most of all experience the wonderful world of books. Best of Luck.
I completely agree with Grisham's assessment. Printed books are never going away. I tried the kindle thing, and it wasn't the same. I barely use it, mostly out of convenience if it's impractical for me to carry a book. I bet even most of the avid readers in my tribe (millennials) would agree.
I get enough screen glare from all my political pursuits on YT and others. If it's beyond a mere online article, I hate reading online. Books are cozy and also tactile and have a distinctive books smell as well.
I'm not a millennial. I have both "real" books and a Kindle loaded with books and don't seem to have an issue reading either. I don't know why there has to be a war about it.
I've never read any of Grisham's stuff but I was pleasantly surprised to hear his views on the death penalty and his reference to the Innocence Project. I have great respect for anyone who has the courage to stand against the death penalty in this day and age where so many are so very bloodthirsty.
The death penalty is for a very select few. Like child murderers and rapists. People like the Wagners who executed an entire family, two of whom were sleepibg with their infant babies. What about Koglberger, another execution, of four college students. What about Bundy? What about Nicoke Brown Simpson, slaughtered! Sharon Tate, nine months pregnant, slaughtered? Jessica Chambers, burned alive?
One though on Stephen’s humble beginnings, how unfair it is. Both him and his wife were well educated and they still had to live on a poverty line in a trailer somewhere. Such a shame, makes me really angry. They’ve done what needed to be done and the system was still kicking them in the teeth. Really happy they are here today to tell their stories. 💚
I know you won't be happy to hear this, but I buy used books or borrow from the library. I can't afford to buy new books, even paperbacks are beyond my budget these days.
I get lots of good books from thrift shop, etc. I like that it’s been read and it’s not a waste of paper and energy. That’s how I started reading S.K. 35 years ago from a book I found for twenty five cents figured it was time to see what all the fuss was about. 😊
I genuinely couldn't tell if Grisham liked SK at first, but a few minutes in to the convo you realize that they're very good friends that enjoy ribbing each other.
Thank you, gentlemen for this. As an aspiring writer who has fairly evenly balanced his time between busting ass to pay bills (or earn a degree) and reading novels, you guys are an inspiration, and we all owe you a debt of gratitude for your time here.
Every year Stephen sells film making students the rights to his work for $1. He calls them “Million Dollar Baby” movies. That’s a man who loves the arts, he doesn’t have to do that.
A great chat. I remember reading 'Salem's Lot because I was compelled to know what happened and found the film too scary to watch at the time, only to find that the book was just as scary..
Really love Stephen King and have read so many of his novels ... And just recently found Grisham's Time to Kill in a thrift store and absolutely loved it! I cheered at the end!
I've only read one John Grisham book. The Innocent man. His only non fiction book. Still one of my favorite non fiction books to this day. What an incredible story and writer. Incredibly emotional rollercoaster of a book. I'm not much into fiction but I do love some SK .....Carrie probably still being my favorite. Closely followed by The Stand and It...
Those are the dudes who still keep us reading - among few dozens of more really good international authors - and who drag our asses to the book stores and libraries and of course those wonderful worlds of story telling - oh, well... nowadays we obviously have those e-books and audio books too, but in my opinion the real hard cover book still really rocks and has that authentic magic - you have that world right in your own fingertips and you can just dive into it by opening that magical artifact - the book!
I totally agree with King's comments about the snootiness of the people behind the so called 'literary book' awards. There's no question that these two BEST SELLING authors have earned their place in the literary hall of fame. Had our English teachers added these types of books to the curriculum, I have a feeling we would all be addicted to reading. I know I was totally turned off English lit precisely for that high brow superiority attitude. Go Grisham! Go King!
About the movie Carrie. Stephen started to write it and didn't think it was worth anything so he threw it away. His wife came along and saw crumbled paper in the waste basket and picked it up. She unwrapped it and said I think this is good. Stephen was skeptical but was encouraged to write the book. And the rest is history. : )
A tag comes up that says, "Stephen King Author." Ha? People work very hard, they no longer have time to read. I think I might have read most of kings books.
Aside from popular readership, the younger generation needs to read the earlier works. They need to know what a struggle it was. Sk and grisham will be in my nieces collection. Real life.
Stephen King looks like Libitore's Ran Xerox from the pages of Heavy Metal Magazine in the opening photo. This photo is on the back of his book Revival.
Damn... listening to that lady at the beginning was difficult. I kept imagining hearing the quick bang of a sniper rifle and the thud of a body... sorry... my imagination
Are they kidding?! I would recognize either one of these guys from 200 yds. away. No sweat. Between the two of them, I've read just about every book they've written. (That's a LOT of books). Wonderfiul interview. I'd kill to sit in a bar somewhere for an hour and talk to either one.
The first paragraph of Anton Chekhov's tale "The Bet", from the 19th century, contains this: "The majority of the guests, among whom were many journalists and intellectual men, disapproved of the death penalty. They considered that form of punishment out of date, immoral, and unsuitable for Christian States. In the opinion of some of them the death penalty ought to be replaced everywhere by imprisonment for life."
Haha, you can tell Grisham is getting a little pissed.. Stephen King seems a little off in this interview, probably just old age catching up to him but I love Stephen King, he is my favourite writer and he's the best.
The two authors come onstage at 11:40 minutes. (click the time to skip to it)
Now that’s the best sentence ever written.
Thank You! 🤗🙏

It's nice to see people rise from poverty and remain humble. Beautiful.
Have you read Kings tweets? Not humble
People who hate stephen clearly haven't even seen an interview with him if they did they would see how adorable he is
Anyone who hates him probably hasn’t read much of his books. I’m 49 and I’ve been reading his books since I was 12-13.
Even his books have a heart like the Stand and The Body, they probably dont realize that he wrote The Green Mile and Shawshank Redemption. They just read his horrors, which btw are supposed to disturb someone, doesn't mean he's a sicko
@Just think it’s fiction dude, the core of the book doesn’t really even revolve around that.
@justthink5854 Take a nap. Fer krissakes. It's fiction. You know: not real?
What? People hate SK? I've never heard that.
These guys are class acts. Bravo
John Grisham is one handsome fella. And I love his accent.

I never realized how funny John is.
I have maybe little over 15 books on my kindle app but my entire house is a library. Books in every room in my house.
Gosh, this was unusually wholesome ♥️
Stephen was making $20k a year, and the paperback offer for Carrie was $400k. That’s 20 years worth of salary.
a prime example that if you work hard enough, life will show you a miracle
Especially in the 70s!
Sad truth
And writers are supposed to be introverts who can't present well in public. King is a master speaker, somehow.
He says it himself...."I'm just a Guy"....
@@freeleonardpeltier4148 I know a girl in college who said that too.
Know what I mean, nudge nudge?!

my two fav authors ❤
I'm hoping to get a book published and I really want it to be printed. Nothing against e-books, but I prefer the actual book.

I thought John Grisham was dead, but then I realized I was confusing him with the child actor that played the boy protagonist in The Client.
Brad Renfro?
I wish I hadn't seen those films of John Grishams books, it's always better to read the book first.
I totally agree! Nothing beats picturing the story in your mind.
is the woman at the beginning wasted or something?
Yeah, she's pissed.

FUCK!!! Seriously! She's talking about how the 3rd graders can't read....I literally blurted out....YOU DONT SAY......
She was standing right in the *DEAD ZONE!*

For John Grisham , my name is in A League of their Own.
This is great, but looking at the graphic layout and hearing the music of the intro, I first thought this was from the early 90s.
That lady has clapsickness lol

The first paragraph of Anton Chekhov's tale "The Bet", from the 19th century, contains this: "The majority of the guests, among whom were many journalists and intellectual men, disapproved of the death penalty.

I liked Arnold in Running Man.
