Cutuli uses the root of “rubia tinctorum,” or rose madder, for the famous Pompeiian red.

I love novels, and right now, I’m listening to “Rose Madder,” by Stephen King.

"Christine," "Cujo," "Cycle of the Werewolf," "The Dark Half," "The Dead Zone," "Desperation," "Different Seasons," "Dolores Claiborne," "The Eyes of the Dragon," "Firestarter," "Four Past Midnight," "Gerald’s Game," "IT," "Misery," "Needful Things," "Rose Madder," "Skeleton Crew," "The Tommyknockers."

The pigment is rose madder, an ancient organic color that conservation studies have shown to fade very gradually in sunlight.

Those of you who have read my work—Carrie, Dolores Claiborne, Rose Madder, and Lisey’s Story, to name four—will know that I have plenty of respect for women, and care about the problems and life-situations they face.
