Stephen King is the bestselling author of more than 58 novels and 6 nonfiction books. Sometimes towards us, but more often it spins away, flirting and flashing as it goes: so long, honey, it was good while it lasted, wasn’t it? When all else fails, give up and go to the library.Ī person who doesn’t learn from the past is an idiot, in my estimation. We never know which lives we influence, or when, or why. So begins Jake’s new life as George Amberson and his new world of Elvis and JFK, of big American cars and sock hops, of a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and a beautiful high school librarian named Sadie Dunhill, who becomes the love of Jake’s life-a life that transgresses all the normal rules of time. He enlists Jake on an insane-and insanely possible-mission to try to prevent the Kennedy assassination.
Not much later, Jake’s friend Al, who runs the local diner, divulges a secret: his storeroom is a portal to 1958. Harry escaped with a smashed leg, as evidenced by his crooked walk. He receives an essay from one of the students-a gruesome, harrowing first person story about the night 50 years ago when Harry Dunning’s father came home and killed his mother, his sister, and his brother with a hammer. Jake Epping is a thirty-five-year-old high school English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine, who makes extra money teaching adults in the GED program.
And he introduces readers to a character who has the power to change the course of history. What if you could change it back? Stephen King’s heart-stoppingly dramatic new novel is about a man who travels back in time to prevent the JFK assassination.įollowing his massively successful novel Under the Dome, King sweeps readers back in time to another moment-a real life moment-when everything went wrong: the JFK assassination.
On November 22, 1963, three shots rang out in Dallas, President Kennedy died, and the world changed. Audiobook Length: 30 hours and 40 minutes
