  • WISH YOU WERE HERE By Stewart O'Nan.
  • Like a jack-in-the-box with a broken spring,
    Stephen King keeps popping up in Stewart O'Nan's
    work. In ''The Names of the Dead,'' O'Nan's
    second novel, a book by King winks at the reader
    from a nightstand. The homage is unavoidable in
    O'Nan's third novel, ''The Speed Queen'' the
    narrator, a young woman on death row, dictates
    her story into a tape destined for an unnamed
    writer whose books include ''Carrie'' and ''The
    Shining.'' Even O'Nan's recent foray into
    nonfiction, ''The Circus Fire,'' bears the prints
    of the macabre it recounts, often in gruesome
    detail, a deadly blaze at a Ringling Brothers
    show in the 1940's.
  • O'Nan has inherited from King an acute
    sensitivity to the vein of horror beneath even
    the most prosaic settings. But unlike King, he
    never loses his grasp on reality. Rather than
    indulge in the excesses of the supernatural, he
    uses the terrors of everyday life -- nightmares,
    violent crimes, wars -- as a channel to the most
    intimate reaches of the human mind.
