Stephen King's 1979 novel, The Dead Zone, is a gripping tale of psychic abilities and alternate history. The novel tells the story of Johnny Smith, a young man who acquires the ability to see into the future after being involved in a near-fatal car accident.
Johnny's newfound ability initially comes as a shock, but he soon learns to use it to help others. He prevents a plane crash, saves a child from drowning, and even helps the police solve a murder case. However, Johnny's visions also reveal a dark future, one in which a charismatic politician named Greg Stillson is elected president and leads the world to nuclear war.
Johnny is torn between using his abilities to change the future and respecting the free will of others. He eventually decides to try to stop Stillson from becoming president, but his efforts are unsuccessful. Stillson is elected, and the world is plunged into chaos.
The Dead Zone is a haunting tale of psychic abilities and the power of choice. It is a story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
