Carrie

6b, Stephen King  First Edition First First Printing Signed 1974 Notes Carrie is a horror novel by Stephen King, published in 1974 as his debut work. The story centers around Carrie White, a shy, bullied high school girl who discovers she has powerful telekinetic abilities. Raised by a fanatically religious and abusive mother, Carrie’s life at home is as nightmarish as her life at school. When her classmates play a cruel prank on her during prom night, Carrie’s suppressed rage unleashes her powers in a devastating and unforgettable way. The novel explores themes of alienation, revenge, and the dark side of human nature, and it solidified King's reputation as a master of horror.
