As labyrinthine as its namesake, Dorothea Lasky’s The
Shining is an ekphrastic horror lyric that shapes an entirely
unique feminist psychological landscape. Here, Lasky guides
us through the familiar rooms of the Overlook Hotel, both
realized and imagined, inhabiting characters and spaces that have
been somewhat flattened in Stephen King’s text or
Stanley Kubrick’s film adaptations. Ultimately,
Lasky’s poems point us to the ways in which language is always
haunted—by past selves, poetic ancestors, and paradoxical
histories.Â
