   Is Doctor Sleep A sequel to 'the Shining'?

   • But I knew terror when I felt it, and the book had that effect on me, oh, yes, it did. So Doctor Sleep, the sequel to The Shining, gives us the story of Danny (now Dan) Torrance's adult life, his wrestling match with alcohol, and his struggle to find stability and use his power — the shining — for good purposes.

   What is the difference between the Shining & Doctor Sleep?

   • The Shining was a book by a drinking alcoholic about an alcoholic in the grip of white-knuckle abstinence. Doctor Sleep is a book about a recovering alcoholic written by a recovering alcoholic. The mantras of AA run all the way through it. But, this being King, there's more than one Higher Power knocking about and Danny's are not the only demons.

   Was alcohol The Eraser in Doctor Sleep?

   • "Booze was the eraser." King refers to the earlier self who wrote The Shining as a "well-meaning alcoholic", just like Dan's father in that novel. Doctor Sleep traces a fuller arc in which Dan gets hooked on drink, hits rock bottom, and drags himself up again.
