GALAXY CHOICE JULY 2012. What if you could go back in time and change the course of history? What if the watershed moment you could change was the JFK assassination? 11/22/63, the date that Kennedy was shot - unless... King takes his protagonist Jake Epping, a high school English teacher from Lisbon Falls, Maine, 2011, on a fascinating journey back to 1958 - from a world of mobile phones and iPods to a new world of Elvis and JFK, of Plymouth Fury cars and Lindy Hopping, 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. With extraordinary imaginative power, King weaves the social, political and popular culture of his baby-boom American generation into a devastating exercise in escalating suspense.

Reviews for 11.22.63

Fine stories to take with us into the night. - Neil Gaiman on FULL DARK, NO STARS in the Guardian America's greatest living novelist. - Lee Child King's gift of storytelling is unrivalled. His ferocious imagination is unlimited. - George Pelecanos King's most purely entertaining novel in years . . . utterly compelling. - John Connolly on UNDER THE DOME Staggeringly addictive. - USA Today on UNDER THE DOME Tight and energetic from start to finish. - New York Times on UNDER THE DOME The pedal is indeed to the metal. - Guardian on UNDER THE DOME Delivers a lot of praise and enjoy. The story comes off the blocks with almost alarming speed ... he tells a story like a pro .... 11.22.63 kept me up all night. - Daily Telegraph
