Discussion Questions for The Shining
In the novel The Shining by Stephen King, the character Jack Torrance is a recovering alcoholic. As more time passes at the Overlook hotel, Jack’s old habits from his drinking days slowly begin to return. What does this suggest about Jack? Why do you believe his old habits have returned?
In the novel, what is the main conflict? What do you believe could have been done to resolve it?
One of the main themes in The Shining is alcoholism. Why do you believe that Stephen King would make this the biggest theme of the story?

don't fire cannons to call attention to their shining, they just shine. See the link below for more info.
