Krista’s #CBR4 Review #5: 11/22/63 by Stephen King
11/22/63 tells the story of not only just the day of JFK’s assassination (that is not a spoiler – read the title and look at the picture!) but it deals with time entire concept of time travel. Jake is living in 2011 when Al, the man who owns a local diner, invites him to take a trip through time via a portal in the pantry of his diner. And boom goes the dynamite. What follows is part thriller and part love story. King looks at what the repercussion of time travel are, and also looks at our capacity for love and human compassion in the midst of suffering.
This book was a nicely written book, and my mind kept tripping out (in a good way!) on certain concepts … but you’ll have to click over to find some specific examples!
