A Shining

The atmospheric prose with an overall symbolism of death and abandonment made this book feel like a long fever dream. This is further accentuated by Fosse's repetitive and picturesque description of the whole scenario but I didn't find it to be much enthralling or mesmerizing. Maybe I am overlooking something but this book didn't perform well in my humble opinion.
so, 3 stars/5
p.s-I am looking forward to reading the septology series

‘A Shining' is a short, 73-page book about a seemingly depressed and anxious man, who drives and walks deep into a forest until he becomes lost. As readers, we follow along his actions and thoughts in the form of an uneasy and curious soliloquy.

This book is an easy read and I recommend it as a palette cleanser.
