Meer over het boek
The Overlook Hotel boasts a stunning setting, but for Jack Torrance, the new winter caretaker, along with his wife Wendy and their son Danny, it represents much more. Jack views the hotel as a chance to reclaim his life from failure, while Wendy sees it as a fragile opportunity to protect their family. Danny, gifted with a precognitive ability, perceives the sinister presence lurking within the hotel's empty rooms—an evil waiting just for them. This Deluxe Special Edition features an introduction by Stephen King, an afterword by Mick Garris, and the complete text of "Before the Play," a prologue that has never been included in previous editions. Additionally, it includes a Deleted Material section with hundreds of sentences, paragraphs, and scenes not found in the final version, including a four-page section titled "After the Play," which King thought was lost. An essay by Jon Page, "The Shine Manuscript: An Early Draft of The Shining," details the discovery of this previously unpublished text. This edition offers a deeper insight into the chilling narrative crafted by the master of modern horror.
