Everyone's favorite Mortimer Snerd is turning 50 this week!
On April 5, 1974, a little novel named Carrie by an unknown author named
Stephen King was unleashed on an unsuspecting public. Fifty years
later, the book has been adapted multiple times, is still in print, has
been translated into multiple languages, and has seared itself into the
public consciousness, helping turn Stephen King into a household name in
the process.
This video is all about Carrie - new thoughts after a recent reread of
the novel, and my previous anecdotes shared in a video from 2023.
