Danny now Dan, has grown up to recapitulate many of his father’s personality traits, especially his penchant for alcohol and hostile tendencies.As Dan sobers up, he notices the return of his psychic powers, which have been suppressed since childhood. His psychic abilities, long suppressed by his drinking, re-emerge and allow him to provide comfort to dying patients. Dan acquires the nickname "Doctor Sleep." Here are some of the quotes inside this book.
“The world is a hungry place, a dangerous place, and a dark place. I’ve only met two or three people like us. They died. When I was a kid, I bumped into these things. I don’t know about magic. I always called it the shining.”
“When I was a kid, there was a place, a dark place. They closed it down, and let it rot. But the things that live there, they come back.”
“But time had changed. When you couldn’t sleep, when you were afraid to look around because of what you might see, time elongated and grew sharp teeth.”
-Dan Torrence-
