Knowing Stan's wife's back story helps put you into the body of Stan and see out of his eyes. I definitely agree about King being long winded, but it's this kind of detail and imagery that puts you in the book instead of just reading it.

Funny that criticism of so many loved books is that there is too much detail, look at this thread we have mentioned, King, GRRM & Wolfe. My favorite author Tolkien is also criticized by some for this. Thing is that the details are what immerses some readers into the story and turns others off. Great examples of to each their own.
