THE STAND By Stephen King In the year 1991, a plague strikes America killing everyone except a few thousand people who were "immune" to the epidemic.

The two groups separately and independently re-build their societies, until it comes time for one to destroy the other (good vs. evil). Franni Goldsmith …showed first 75 words of 540 total…

…showed last 75 words of 540 total…Stand is a book about human nature. It shows people's inclination toward good or evil. Mostly, it shows how it is in man's nature to build society and to fight for his beliefs. I found this book to be extremely entertaining because it was well written and somewhat realistic, despite it's supernatural aspects. I would recommend this book for anyone who enjoys roller coasters, horror movies, or a good old fashioned suspense novel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
