Book description
Adolescencia, venganza y sangre, todo un hito en la literatura popular. Carrie, una joven de apariencia insignificante, acosada por sus compañeras de instituto, vive con su madre, una fanática religiosa. Un día en las duchas, la primera menstruación de Carrie provoca las burlas de las demás chicas y desencadena una sucesión de hechos sobrenaturales y terroríficos. Con el instituto como epicentro de la trama, la pequeña ciudad de Chamberlain, Maine, verá cambiar el curso de su historia en manos de la aterradora adolescente. Llevada al cine con un éxito absoluto de público y crítica, Carrie es la primera novela del maestro indiscutible del terror. King despliega en esta historia todo su potencial narrativo, construyendo un universo que no deja a ningún lector indiferente. "Yo le daría el Premio Nobel a Stephen King". -Mariana Enríquez "Un maestro de la narración". -Los Angeles Times ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Stephen King's legendary debut, the bestselling smash hit that put him on the map as one of America's favorite writers "Gory and horrifying...You can't put it down." --Chicago Tribune Unpopular at school and subjected to her mother's religious fanaticism at home, Carrie White does not have it easy. But while she may be picked on by her classmates, she has a gift she's kept secret since she was a little girl: she can move things with her mind. Doors lock. Candles fall. Her ability has been both a power and a problem. And when she finds herself the recipient of a sudden act of kindness, Carrie feels like she's finally been given a chance to be normal. She hopes that the nightmare of her classmates' vicious taunts is over... but an unexpected and cruel prank turns her gift into a weapon of horror so destructive that the town may never recover.
