Exploring the psychological depths of the Overlook Hotel, Dorothea Lasky's work offers a feminist perspective on the familiar horror landscape. Through her ekphrastic poetry, she reimagines characters and settings often overshadowed by Stephen King's original text and Stanley Kubrick's adaptations. Lasky's poems delve into the haunting nature of language, revealing connections to past selves, poetic ancestors, and complex histories, creating a rich and intricate narrative that challenges traditional interpretations.
