"The Long Walk" by Stephen King, written under the pseudonym Richard Bachman, is a dystopian novel that explores the limits of human endurance and the dark side of competition. The story is set in a future America where 100 teenage boys participate in an annual event known as "The Long Walk," a brutal contest where they must maintain a minimum speed of four miles per hour without stopping. If they fall below this speed, they receive a warning, and after three warnings, they are shot dead by soldiers accompanying the walk. The last boy standing wins a prize of anything he desires for the rest of his life. The novel follows the journey of 16-year-old Ray Garraty, who forms alliances and rivalries with other walkers as they traverse the grueling path.
