More about the book
Carrie was the outcast at school, struggling with games and social cues, becoming the target of her peers' cruelty. Her mother instilled a sense of sinfulness in her, repressing Carrie's unique ability to move objects with her mind. This power manifested in small ways, like moving marbles or locking doors, but was kept hidden as part of her secret life. A moment of kindness at her senior prom offered Carrie a glimpse of self-worth, but a subsequent act of cruelty unleashed her powers in a terrifying way. This pivotal night transformed her abilities into a means of horror and devastation, as she caused a lighted candle to fall and locked the doors, leading to catastrophic consequences. This deluxe special edition features an introduction by Stephen King, an afterword by Tabitha King discussing themes of adolescent terror and sexuality, and a unique oversized design with two-color interior printing. It includes high-quality paper, stunning full-color dust jacket artwork by Tomislav Tikulin, and interior paintings on glossy stock. The edition is a collectible print run, significantly smaller than the millions of copies sold over the past 40 years, making it a special addition for fans and collectors alike.
