1.The social issue I choose is addiction.
2.Stephen King The Tommy knockers, Tommy knockers(mini series)
3.I choose this novel because it gives an insight of what addiction can do mentally and physically. Through metaphors King shows the transformation people go through during their addictions; literally turning into grotesque monsters the longer they stay addicted. The story is told from the perspective of several individuals some addicted, one fighting off the addiction, and the rest fighting against those who are addicted. It also shows some of the King's mind during his fight against his addictions.
4.Its genre is science fiction, horror
The topics discussed in the novel deals with lose of ones self, the temptations one deals with during their fight to stay sober, how easy it is to get addicted.
background, state of mind.
