A disturbed high-school student with authority problems kills one of his teachers and takes the rest of his class hostage. Over the course of one long, tense and unbearable hot afternoon, Charlie Decker explains what led him to this drastic sequence of events, while at the same time deconstructing the personalities of his classmates, forcing each one to justify his or her existence.

Review of 'Rage' on 'Goodreads'

Anyone saying that they don't understand why this book is out of print hasn't read it. This book sucks and anyone who "likes" it isn't someone you should listen to. Yeah, the whole "angry at the world" thing sucks and probably shouldn't be heralded but the fact that an absolutely unlikable character should be some type of antihero worth appreciation at all is just insulting to a reader looking for a good story. King says this was written primarily in high school and it shows.
