#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this tour de force from the undisputed King of Horror, a young family confronts an unspeakable evil in the harsh isolation of winter in the Rocky Mountains.
“An undisputed master of suspense and terror.” —The Washington Post
Jack Torrance’s new job at the Overlook Hotel is the perfect chance for a fresh start. As the off-season caretaker at the atmospheric old hotel, he’ll have plenty of time to spend reconnecting with his family and working on his writing. But when the oppressive winter weather sets in, the idyllic location feels ever more remote . . . and more sinister. As strange and terrible forces gather around the Overlook, the only one to notice is the uniquely gifted five-year-old Danny Torrance—yet the true horror lurking within its walls is beyond human comprehension.
カスタマーレビュー
If you liked the movie...
The book is (obviously) much more thorough in its treatment of the characters and setting than the famous Kubrick film.
If you enjoyed the film, the book is a must-read, filling in many of the gaps presented in the film.
If you didn't like the film, give the book a shot anyway. Supposing you at least liked the premise.
As a standalone work, it's entertaining, but not earth shattering. At ¥500 there's not much to lose, but don't go in expecting literary revolution.
