O livro conta a história da família Trenton, de classe-média. Mundana conjugal e as dificuldades financeiras desgraçaram a vida de Vic Trenton e sua esposa, Donna. Seus problemas domésticos são aumentados pelo perigo mortal quando Donna e seu filho de quatro anos, Tad, são aterrorizados por um cão da raça São Bernardo chamado Cujo. O livro foi adaptado em 1983 para um filme homônimo. Em seu livro autobiográfico, "On Writing", King disse que escreveu o livro durante o apogeu de seu período no abuso de drogas e álcool. Nesse livro, King escreveu que se lembra muito pouco do momento de escrita de "Cujo", um de seus desgostos.

O romance ganhou o em 1982.
