Stephen King's first novel, Carrie, the story of a bullied telekinetic teenager who gets viciously pranked at prom, turns 50 on April 5.
“Many of you told us that Stephen King helped you become readers. Stephanie Larson of Cleveland, Ohio, wrote 'no matter where I am – from an academic conference to a busy bus – I'm likely to find a fellow 'Constant Reader' whose reading life, like mine, has been transformed for the better by King.'”
“Hundreds of readers wrote in to say this 1978 novel – about a super-flu that has the capacity to wipe out nearly everyone on Earth – was the best King they'd ever read.”
Meghan Balough, an epidemiologist in Salt Lake City, said this novel “has never been more relevant than it is today.”
