The Stand by Stephen King is an epic post-apocalyptic novel in which a deadly virus, known as “Captain Trips,” wipes out most of humanity. The survivors are divided between two groups: one led by the kind-hearted Mother Abagail, who represents hope and goodness, and the other by the sinister Randall Flagg, symbolizing chaos and evil. As the groups converge, they face a final confrontation between good and evil. The novel explores themes of survival, morality, and the human spirit, weaving supernatural elements with a realistic portrayal of society in crisis. It’s widely regarded as one of King’s most ambitious and powerful works.
