The Langoliers are a fictional entity created by Stephen King as his representation of what happens to the past when everyone has 'moved on' to the present....it gets eaten up/erased by these 'creatures'. The concept, demonstrated by the character of Craig Toomy through his fear of the Langoliers, is that if you are lazy and lag behind, you will get swallowed up and forgotten in the past. So you're as good as dead.
As the Jewish proverb goes: The only truly dead are those who have been forgotten.

Actually one of the few Stephen King books I read...not too bad, but a bit too long-winded...one of the reasons I don't like his writing style.
