Description
New York: Doubleday & Company, Inc, 1977. First edition. Near Fine/Very Good +. First printing, with R49 gutter code on p. 447 and "First Edition" on copyright page. A Near Fine copy, presenting very well, with just a trace of foxing to closed edges of text block and minor wear to cloth at head and tail of spine. Small ink gift inscription to front free endpaper (Carol - Happy Birthday! John). First issue dust jacket (with "TS" and $8.95 price on front flap) with a couple small chips to edges, a couple patches of slight dampstaining, and original price blacked out in ink (still visible). Housed in a custom slipcase lettered in green. An appealing copy of King's most iconic novel. A classic on both page and screen, The Shining explores some of the deepest and darkest places in the human psyche. Struggling with writer's block, latent alcoholism, and the pressures these place on his family, Jack Torrance accepts a position as caretaker of the vast Overlook Hotel for the winter. Moving in for the off-season with his wife Wendy and son Danny, Jack hopes that the peace and quiet will offer a corrective to his problems. Yet the Overlook, isolated and in filled with dark spirits, haunts Jack; in a mirror of the hotel's violent past, Jack turns against his family. The Shining was, famously, adapted by director-producer Stanley Kubrick and screenwriter Diane Johnson in 1980. Though Stephen King himself had mixed (but mostly negative) feelings about the adaptation and its deviation from the content of the novel, the film has rightfully entered the canon of American horror and has left an indelible mark on pop culture. Near Fine in Very Good + dust jacket.
