View 12 Paul Sheldon Misery Child - Paul Sheldon is the author the woman really wants to read. She's enraged that no one has heard of him, and she yells out the titles of his works, including Misery's Child. That's because Paul Sheldon is the primary character in Stephen King's 1987 novel Misery. Sheldon in King's book Paul Sheldon is the primary character in Stephen King's 1987 horror novel Misery, as well as the 1990 horror film adaptation of the same name. He's a romance author whose biggest admirer, Annie Wilkes, is a bad guy. He authored a popular novel series about a lady named Misery Chastain. In the film, he is played by James Caan.
Sheldon has grown to despise his main character, Misery Chastain, and has murdered her off in the final episode of the series, "Misery's Child." While in Colorado, he finished a new work, a serious novel. Unfortunately, on his way back to New York, he is involved in an automobile accident that fractures his limbs and pelvis. What is the most terrifying picture in Stephen King's Misery? It wasn't Paul Sheldon's stumbling or the young cop's murder (spearing him first, then running over his face with a lawn mower). It wasn't Annie's own facial mutilation. The most terrifying vision was Paul watching as his book, the long-awaited Fast Cars, was destroyed.
Misery follows Annie Wilkes as she devotes herself to care for renowned author Paul Sheldon after discovering his wounded and broken body in a car accident. But, as with any King narrative, things turn strange when Paul realizes Annie is a huge fan of his book series, Misery Chastain, just as Annie discovers Paul is ready to murder Misery off. Despite their fame and the money they've provided him, Paul feels these novels are little more than dime-store romances. Misery has died giving birth to her first child in the latest episode Misery's Child, an act Paul hopes will liberate him from the character and allow him to explore other literary ideas.
