gracias...Wat is the deus ex machina of carrie by stephen king??
Carrie ends with the main protagonist dying, having first killed her mother and many of her school mates. Deus ex machina means an unexpected, artificial, or improbable character, device, or event introduced suddenly in a work of fiction or drama to resolve a situation or untangle a plot (e.g., having the protagonist wake up and realize it was all a dream or an angel suddenly appear to solve all the plot problems of a story that won't resolve itself by the characters). The phrase has been extended to refer to any resolution to a story which does not pay due regard to the story's internal logic and is so unlikely it challenges suspension of disbelief; allowing the author to conclude the story with an unlikely, though more palatable, ending.
From this description we can see that the book Carrie can't treally be classified as having a deus ex machina, as the ending is not really a happy ending coined by the author, but a gruesome and sad ending.
