Carrie ist ein Mädchen, das von allen Leuten nur geärgert und ausgelacht wird. Als kleines Mädchen wird sie durch ihre Mutter einer heftigen Stresssituation ausgesetzt und lässt mit Hilfe ihrer Willenskraft Steine auf das Elternhaus regnen. Als sie in die Pubertät kommt, entdeckt sie ihre Fähigkeiten der Telekenise(TK), plötzlich kommen auch die Erinnerungen an früher hoch. Die Anführerin einer Schülerclique(Chris) macht Carrie im Turnunterricht fertig, weil diese ahnungslos zum ersten mal ihre Tage bekommen hat. Wegen ihrem grausamen Verhallten gegenüber Carrie darf sie nicht zum Schülerball.Chris will Carrie "vernichten" und schmiedet einen bitteren Plan... Ein erstklassiger Roman, über den man lange nachdenken kann!!!

Kings Erstlingswerk ist ein Klassiker, den jeder Fan gelesen haben muss. Hinterher noch den Film ansehen und der Spass ist komplett.

Carrie ist wirklich das beste Buch, das ich je gelesen habe! Carrie ist noch glaubwürdiger als Trisha in "Das Mädchen". Als ich es zu Ende gelesen hatte, habe ich gleich nochmal angefangen. Spannend, grauenvoll-aber doch so wirklich! EIn Leckerbissen!

King's erster Roman...na ja, jedensfalls sein erster veröffentlichter Roman. In seiner fesselnden Schreibweise packt er den Leser mit dem Phänomen der Telekinese, dem Wahnsinn einer fanatischen Gottesgläubigen und den grausamen Umgang der Außenseiterin Carrie mit Ihren Mitschülern. Um die Länge des Buches zu Strecken, baut King fiktive Zeitungs- und Buchartikel in die Story ein, und erweckt damit den Eindruck, eine "wahre" Geschichte zu erzählen. Dank seiner genialen Schreibweise, hatte ich das packende Buch in nur zwei Tagen gelesen...ich würde mich ärgern, hätte ich es nicht getan !!!

Carrie ist ein typischer King-Thriller. Das Buch handelt über das Mädchen Carrie die übernatürliche Fähigkeiten besitzt. Sie wird von anderen Schülern immer nur gehänselt und von der Mutter oft wegen Nichtigkeiten stundenlang in einen Schrank eingesperrt. Es endet natürlich alles in einem Blutbad. Die Geschichte ist mitreißend erzählt. Eigentlich kann man der jungen Carrie, obwohl sie zu einer Mörderin wird, überhaupt nicht böse sein, ja man versteht sie sogar. Einfach lesenswert!

I just finished reading this book today. It took me a total of a day and a half to read this 253 page book, which is extremely fast for me. This is without a doubt one of the most fast paced and horrifying King books ever written. No wonder this was the book that spawned his great career. This book had great character development and the ending was shocking. I have not seen the movie, so I did not know what to expect when reading this book. I also recommend The Shining, Misery, and Christine by King. Bottom line is...this book is great and fun to read. Take the word from a true King fan. And please...don't ever bully someone weaker than you, it might come back to burn you.

I want to open by stating that I am a 'tried and true' King fan -- I love his novels and shorter fiction (Okay, Tom Gordon is a stretch). Carrie is definately a successful attempt by King to create characters that continually haunt the reader. Margeret White, for example, is a truly psycopathic, terrifying character who literally ruins our heroine, Carrie. We believe the insane, abusive zealotry found in Mrs. White; she neverendingly haunts our imagination, with large upper arms and daddy's bible in hand. Additionally, Carrie is drawn as a character teens and adults find appealing; we empatize with her view of society and its inherent cruelty. Carrie, furthermore, is an unleashed but polluted beauty or a Blakeian 'Sick Rose.' Although King is sucessful in his creation of character, it is the linear and occasionally predicatable plot that detracts from the perfection of the story. The progression from Carrie's womanhood and maturing of her TK power to her all out frustration with momma and the tantalizing teanagers works well, but King's plot/subplot development is not at its peak. Instead, King seems to apply a more creative narrative structure -- a structure of clippings, testimonies, and journals that clearly works well. Carrie is an example of King's earliest success that shows his expertise in riveting character development.

This is King's famous debut novel. Though until Brian de Palma made the film, few people had even heard of it. But the film version launched the careers of King, de Palma, Sissy Spacek, John Travolta, and others.

I admitedly have not yet scene the film version, but the book was great. King seems to be under the impression that this novel is very raw and unpolished, and perhaps he is right--I admit it isn't as polished as many books I've read, but I don't see this is a bad thing; if this is the case, perhaps it is what made the book so good. It was a very riveting book. King was also sucessful at getting at the emotional core of Carrie White, and other characters involved. It is a very worthwhile read, and goes by very quickly as it is only about 200 pages long (the original hardcover is 199 pages in length; I do not know the page count on subsequent volumes.)

I definately recommend this book to anyone fond of the Horror genre or King's work (sadly, many people--dare I say most?--who read King do not read any of the other works within the genre; this is sad because some of the other talents out there surpass him by far.)

This book had me fascinated form the first chapter to the last. During the climax, the vivid images of everything that happened went through my head. It kept me up way past my bedtime (I'm 14) reading it. I couldn't put it down. I wanted to know what would happen next. The best part was undoubtedly the scene between Carrie and her mother which leads to Mother's untimely demise. A must read for anyone who enjoys King or sheer apocalyptic holocaust reigning down on Small Town America.

I have read two of Stephen King's books (The Shinning and Carrie) and I'm reading "Desperation" and Carrie is the best of his books yet! "The Shinning" was good but a little too gory. "Carrie" is more freaky and makes you think. I liked "Carrie" because I could relate to her. I was one of the girls that got picked on, not poplar and everything. So, reading this book really made me think. I'm going to see the movie if my dad will let me (hey, I'm only 12). So, read "Carrie". But, my advice to you, don't read any of his books at night!
