It By Stephen King Chapter 3

“Hot they had been; starved they had not. They were married on August 19th, 1972. Patty Uris had gone to her marriage bed a virgin. She had slipped naked between cool sheets at a resort hotel in the Poconos, her mood turbulent and stormy—lightning-flares of wanting and delicious lust, dark clouds of fright. When Stanley slid into bed beside her, ropy with muscle, his penis an exclamation point rising from gingery pubic hair, she had whispered: “Don’t hurt me, dear.” “I will never hurt you,” he said as he took her in his arms, and it was a promise he had kept faithfully until May 28th, 1985—the night of the bath. “You can see that Stephen King has used imagery once again to strength his story . He adds imagery kind of like fifty shades of grey has added in their book. Even though this is not a very sexual scene. The reader can see how patty and Stanley were in there first honeymoon day. That why King is a good imagery writer. Now since i have seen the movie. this part of the book is not added in the movie but instead it explain about Stanley first meeting IT and how Stanley almost got killed by IT when the kid decide to attack him in the sewage. The movie does show when Stanley committed suicide and patty walked in and see him dead. But this background of patty was taken off from the movie. i think it was taken off because of budget and even because it doesn't match with the story . i myself don't mind this background of patty but i would had prefer the book would talk more about Stanley than patty since she didn't have a encounter with IT. the book also explain other topic on how each character do seem to forget each other and when they do remember about their childhood they remember about IT. Which is why Stanley killed himself because he would rather die with his own hand than by IT.
