Title: The Shinnig
Author: Stephen King
(1977)
When I hear for the first time about The Shinning it was for the film with the great Jack Nicholson. But I learn before that in some cases is better to try to go to the source, so I prefer to give a try to the book instead.
I never read a King's novel before and I'm really satisfy. I had a few clues about it but when I passed each page I realize the magnificent classic that I had on my hands.
On many stories a see on tv or somewhere else, I see a lot of references to some parts of this novel. Blooding walls, old murderers and its ghosts, strange powers owned by an innocent mind, but all of this with a great sense of fear that only the imagination of the author and the interpretation of the reader can make a great and enjoyable story.
Definitely I'm going to read more novel by The Master of Horror
