About Carrie

<p>Stephen King's legendary debut, about a teenage outcast and the revenge she enacts on her classmates.<br><br>Carrie White may have been unfashionable and unpopular, but she had a gift. Carrie could make things move by concentrating on them. A candle would fall. A door would lock. This was her power and her sin. Then, an act of kindness, as spontaneous as the vicious taunts of her classmates, offered Carrie a chance to be a normal and go to her senior prom. But another act--of ferocious cruelty--turned her gift into a weapon of horror and destruction that her classmates would never forget.</p>Amazon.com Review<p>Why read <em>Carrie</em>? Stephen King himself has said that he finds his early work "raw," and Brian De Palma's movie was so successful that we feel as if we have read the novel even if we never have. The simple answer is that this is a very scary story, one that works as well, if not better, on the page as it does on the screen. Carrie White, bullied by cruel teenagers at school and her religious nut of a mother at home, gradually discovers that she has telekinetic powers, powers that will eventually be turned on her tormentors. King has a way of getting under the skin of his readers by creating an utterly believable world that throbs with menace before finally exploding. He builds the tension in this early work by piecing together extracts from newspaper reports, journals, and scientific papers, as well as more traditional first- and third-person narrative in order to reveal what lurks beneath the surface of Chamberlain, Maine. </p><p>News item from the Westover (ME) weekly Enterprise, August 19, 1966: "Rain of Stones Reported: It was reliably reported by several persons that a rain of stones fell from a clear blue sky on Carlin Street in the town of Chamberlain on August 17th."</p><p>Although the supernatural pyrotechnics are handled with King's customary aplomb, it is the carefully drawn portrait of the little horrors of small towns, high schools, and adolescent sexuality that give this novel its power and assures its place in the King canon. <em>--Simon Leake</em></p>Review<p>Praise for Stephen King and <em>Carrie<br></em><br>"A master storyteller." --<em>The Los Angeles Times</em><br></p><p>"Guaranteed to chill you." <em>--The New York Times<br></em> <br>"Gory and horrifying.... You can't put it down." <em>--Chicago Tribune<br></em> <br>“[The] most wonderfully gruesome man on the planet.” —<em>USA Today</em><br><br>“Eerie and haunting—sheer terror!” —<em>Publishers Weekly</em><br><br>“Shivering, shuddery, macabre evil!” —<em>Pittsburgh Post-Gazette</em><br><br>“Stephen King has built a literary genre of putting ordinary people in the most terrifying situations. . . . he’s the author who can always make the improbable so scary you'll feel compelled to check the locks on the front door.” —<em>The Boston Globe</em><br><em> </em><br>“Peerless imagination.” —<em>The Observer</em> (London) </p>
