Jim and Diane initially lived in Hawkins where they grew up, until Jim took a job opening in New York City. The hallway was white. Walls, floor, ceiling. The works. White on white on white and it did nothing for Hopper except make him feel slightly dizzy. Snow blindness in the inner city. Imagine that.

Authors Philippe Margotin and Jean-Michel Guesdon say that all songs except "Something in the Night" were recorded at the Record Plant. [11] A oscuras en la ciudad nos traslada a la cabaña de Hopper en algún punto de la segunda temporada, donde Jim, tras las curiosas preguntas de Eleven, le cuenta su historia en el Nueva York de 1977 como inspector de homicidios, cuando una serie de crímenes asolaron la ciudad. The fortune-teller closed her eyes, her features twisted as though she was in pain. Hopper felt Diane’s grip tighten around his hand. Hopper started to feel a little uneasy. This was an act, and none of it was real, but something in the room had changed, the lighthearted feeling of fun suddenly evaporating. Nimm die Szenen raus, in denen die Gegenwart von Hopper und Elfie betrachtet wird, ändere die Namen, und du hast einen x-beliebigen Kriminalroman ohne Bezug zu Stranger Things. Mir ist bewusst, dass das Buch Hoppers Vorgeschichte darstellt – dementsprechend rechnete ich nicht damit, denselben Mann wie in Hawkins anzutreffen, aber meiner Meinung nach fehlten grundlegende Charakterzüge, die den grummeligen Detective zu einem Sympathieträger machten. Und mal abgesehen davon, dass ich Hopper selten wiedererkannt habe, hätte ich auch von der Geschichte etwas anderes erwartet. a b Williams, Richard (November 11, 2010).

And they had kids, too. Two of them—twins, who, even now, were celebrating with a joint birthday party in the vast kitchen at the rear of the house, a kitchen that opened onto a lush garden surrounded by high walls, an impossible oasis hidden in the spaces between row houses, the greenery somehow surviving the baking summer heat that was turning the rest of New York into a dust bowl. The noise of the party reverberated down the spartan hallway in which Hopper had sought solace, at least for a short while, with his ill-chosen drink.The title of the novel is a direct reference to the song title of Bruce Springsteen's album Darkness on the Edge of Town, recorded from June 1977 to March 1978, the same timeline in which Hopper’s story is set. [2] He querido imaginármelo como un capítulo más de Stranger Things, uno de esos en los que ves el pasado de los protagonistas. Eso sí, si esperáis encontraros al resto de personajes de la serie, olvidadlo. No aparecen en ningún momento salvo durante una pequeña mención a ellos. Tampoco esperéis ninguna conexión con la serie más allá del uso de dos de sus personajes. Es una historia policiaca al uso que bien podría haber funcionado fuera del universo de la serie y con otros protagonistas.

Stranger Things: Darkness on the Edge of Town follows a story about Jim Hopper's past life before everything's changed. This book is the 2nd book in Stranger Things series. But I think it's okay if you haven't read the book 1. It was Christmas on 1984 where he told his story to Eleven when he was a detective in New York City 1977. He was with his wife and daughter. He told Eleven the case about the brutal serial killer and this was his last case. The music and performances of the E Street Band and Springsteen were well received. Some felt the production allowed Springsteen's voice to shine clearer. [k] The Boston Globe 's Ernie Santosuosso said that the production exposed "a remarkably malleable voice" in Springsteen, recognized a "broader musical scope and dimension" than Springsteen's previous records, and praised his guitar work. [79] Critics were divided on the lyrical content. Some felt the songs were overly serious, bleak, and not as uplifting as those on Born to Run. [l] [80] Others enjoyed the evolution in themes from prior records. [81] Hilburn said Darkness takes the lyrical themes of its predecessor and "zeroes in more deeply and productively on the key questions" raised on that record. [75] In The Village Voice, Robert Christgau commented on the narratives and the characters on "Badlands", "Adam Raised a Cain", and "Promised Land", writing that they showcased "how a limited genre can illuminate a mature, full-bodied philosophical insight". He deemed other songs, naming "Streets of Fire" and "Something in the Night", more impressionistic and overblown, revealing Springsteen to be either "an important minor artist or a very flawed and inconsistent major one".

Temnota na okraji města nabízí opravdu napínavý příběh s nádechem detektivky i hororových prvků. Bavilo mě číst nejen o fungování, hierarchii gangů, ale i celkově o životě v NYC před padesáti lety. Hopper sighed and took a sip. This wasn’t how he had planned to spend the Fourth of July, but he knew he shouldn’t judge. The children—all thirty of them, nearly the whole of Sara’s elementary school class—were having a great time, being entertained by a team of professionals hired just for the occasion by the Palmers, and being fed and watered—and sugared—by a catering crew that were probably being paid more for this one gig than Hopper earned in a whole month.
