Synopsis
This in-depth survey examines the wide-ranging critical responses to Stephen King's The Shining and Stanley Kubrick's film adaptation. Through scholarly analysis, the book explores the thematic differences between the novel and the film, with discussions on horror, psychological trauma, and the tension between supernatural and psychological terror. It provides a comprehensive look at how both works have been interpreted and their lasting impact on literature and cinema.
