PRIZE    On November 22  1963  three shots rang out in Dallas  President Kennedy died  and the
world changed. What if you could change it back? In this brilliantly conceived tour de force 
Stephen King—who has absorbed the social  political  and popular culture of his generation more
imaginatively and thoroughly than any other writer—takes readers on an incredible journey into
the past and the possibility of altering it.   It begins with Jake Epping  a
thirty-five-year-old English teacher in Lisbon Falls  Maine  whose life is upended when his
friend Al  who owns the local diner  divulges a secret: his storeroom is a portal to the past 
a particular day in 1958. And the dying Al enlists Jake to take over the mission that has
become his obsession—to prevent the Kennedy assassination.  So begins Jake’s new life as George
Amberson  in the world of Ike and JFK and Elvis  of big American cars and sock hops and
cigarette smoke everywhere and to the small town of Jodie  Texas  where Jake falls dangerously
in love. Every turn leads eventually to a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and to Dallas
where the past becomes heart-stoppingly suspenseful  and where history might not be history
anymore. Time-travel has never been so believable. Or so terrifying.
