A classic of modern American horror from the undisputed master, Stephen King, now available in trade paperback in anticipation of the publication of a long-awaited sequel, Doctor Sleep (Scribner, Fall ’13).
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 as the harsh winter weather sets in, the idyllic location feels ever more remote . . . and more sinister. The only person to notice the strange and terrible forces gathering around the Overlook is five-year-old Danny Torrance, Jack’s uniquely gifted son–and he may also be the only one able to stop them.
