Okay, so Stephen King says in the afterword for Under the Dome that he started this story in the 1970s, put it down because he couldn't resolve it, lost it, an restarted it in the 2000s. But don't worry, despite the fact that they share a major plot point (a DOME), it's nothing like The Simpsons Movie. Basically, one day, at a random time, a small New England town becomes inexplicably cut off from the rest of the world by, for all purposes, a force-field. This sucks for everyone except for the town's corrupt second selectman, his bloodthirsty offspring, Junior, and Junior's asshole rapist friends. Basically, until the last third of the book (that's about the last 350 pages) anything that can go wrong will. After that, anything that can go wrong usually does. This book is pretty painful to read. There are many instances of rape, the threat of rape, and intense violence against women (often resulting in their deaths). Oh, and did I mention necrophilia? Yeah, there's that too. The only reason I finished this book (by the way, totally not worth it) is that a copy of it has been sitting in the break room and I read it on my lunch break because I knew it would be there every time I was there. Also, it does not pair very well with food. King lets himself get maybe even more graphic than usual, also, he clearly no longer actually has an editor from the publisher anymore. One thing I'll give King is that he does good work with consequences in this novel. There really aren't any loose ends. One consequence of me reading this book is I will strongly reconsider whether I actually want to read anything new by this author in the future.
