Stephen King has written a lot of books (77 at last count), so it makes sense that eventually, one of them would come true. Ironically, King’s most prescient novel may turn out to be The Dead Zone, about a man who wakes up from a coma with the power to see the future. In the 1979 thriller, the main character sees a future where an unhinged U.S. president threatens to plunge the world into nuclear Armageddon.

King’s ability to draw parallels between fiction and reality often prompts us to think critically about our world. It’s a reminder that literature can serve as a lens through which we understand complex issues.
