A beautiful hardback classic edition of King's first published novel, Carrie, produced for the fiftieth Anniversary, with a new introduction by Margaret Atwood. Carrie White is no ordinary girl. Carrie White has the gift of telekinesis. To be invited to Prom Night by Tommy Ross is a dream come true for Carrie - the first step towards social acceptance by her high school colleagues.
