Even if you don’t walk in agreeing with the topic, the essay provides some incredible insight into why King ultimately decided to pull Rage from the shelves. It’s a rare look at an author grappling with the real-world weight of their own work. I’m from Massachusetts, so listening to this was admittedly a bit of an echo-chamber experience for me, but that didn't make it any less compelling. It’s concise, sharp, and hard to argue with, regardless of where you stand.
