Comment on How long can someone physically walk for?
adhocfungus@midwest.social 6 days agoI haven’t seen the movie, but the book is very detailed about how the death march is tearing apart their bodies and minds. Some basically sleepwalk and get the tiniest fraction of rest. But even those that do are driven insane.
I’m not really a fan of most of King’s work, but The Long Walk is worth a read even if you don’t like his other stuff.

The main I disliked about the few King works that I read was that the characters had got put into these horror-like situations and then had no freedom of action. This sounds like another one of those. I guess I’ll make a note of its existence in case I find it on a park bench someday, but I don’t feel likely to go looking for it. Thanks.
