Book Description «The Stand» Stephen King

A deadly mistake. A world on the brink. A choice that will shape the future of humanity.

When a single man unknowingly carries a mutated super-flu out of a secret facility, the result is devastating: within weeks, the world is nearly silent. Cities crumble. Governments vanish. And 99% of the population is gone.

But from the ashes, survivors emerge—confused, grieving, and desperate for meaning in a broken world. Two figures rise to guide them: one, a gentle 108-year-old woman named Mother Abagail, drawing people to the promise of peace in Colorado. The other, a mysterious and terrifying figure known only as Randall Flagg—the Dark Man—who thrives on destruction, fear, and control.

As these forces gather their followers, an invisible battle begins. It’s not just about survival anymore. It’s about destiny, choice, and the eternal struggle between light and shadow.

The Stand isn’t just a story—it’s a haunting vision of what happens when everything we know disappears, and we’re left with only our beliefs, our fears, and our will to endure.

This is Stephen King at his most powerful: bold, unsettling, and unforgettable.

Who will stand? And who will fall? The answer may be closer than you think.

Quotes from the book «The Stand» Stephen King

ЦитатаThat wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.
ЦитатаHe smiles a lot. But I think there might be worms inside him making him smile.
ЦитатаShow me a man or a woman alone and I'll show you a saint. Give me two and they'll fall in love. Give me three and they'll invent the charming thing we call 'society'. Give me four and they'll build a pyramid. Give me five and they'll make one an outcast. Give me six and they'll reinvent prejudice. Give me seven and in seven years they'll reinvent warfare. Man may have been made in the image of God, but human society was made in the image of His opposite number, and is always trying to get back home.
ЦитатаYour first impulse is to share good news, your second is to club someone with it.
