It seems to be an issue with 11/22/63 purchased from Kobo. My ePub copy doesn't have italics issues.

The other issue this book is going to have is that if you use a Kobo reader to read this, the main base embedded font will not display. You have Kobo to thank for that one. They have a bug in embedded fonts and even went told of it, they refuse to fix it. The main embedded font is turned on via the body style. Kobo ignores font-family in body in the CSS. Way to go Kobo. The ePub looks very nice the way it is set with all the different embedded fonts. But without the main embedded font, it just won;t look nearly as nice.
