General Analysis

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Carrie by Stephen King tells the story of Carrie White, a teenage outcast living with her abusive and religiously fanatical mother. At school, Carrie endures relentless bullying from her classmates. Unbeknownst to them, Carrie possesses a powerful telekinetic ability that she struggles to understand and control, often triggered by moments of intense emotion. As the high school prom approaches, Carrie experiences a mix of hope and fear, while the undercurrent of her suppressed power hints at a potentially devastating outcome stemming from her years of mistreatment. The narrative explores themes of isolation, cruelty, religious extremism, and the dangerous consequences of pushing someone to their breaking point.
