fifteen　to　ten　miles　an　hour。

〃Theres　the　top；〃　Jack　said；　pointing　three　hundred　yards　ahead。　〃Theres　a

scenic　turnout　and　you　can　see　the　Overlook　from　there。　Im　going　to　pull　off

the　road　and　give　the　bug　a　chance　to　rest。〃　He　craned　over　his　shoulder　at

Danny；　who　was　sitting　on　a　pile　of　blankets。　〃What　do　you　think；　doc？　We　might

see　some　deer。　Or　caribou。〃

〃Sure；　Dad。〃

The　VW　labored　up　and　up。　The　speedometer　dropped　to　just　above　the　five…mile…

an…hour　hashmark　and　was　beginning　to　hitch　when　Jack　pulled　off　the　road

（〃Whats　that　sign；　Mommy？〃　〃SCENIC　TURNOUT；〃　she　read　dutifully。）

and　stepped　on　the　emergency　brake　and　let　the　VW　run　in　neutral。

〃e　on；〃　he　said；　and　got　out。

They　walked　to　the　guardrail　together。

〃Thats　it；〃　Jack　said；　and　pointed　at　eleven　oclock。

For　Wendy；　it　was　discovering　truth　in　a　cliché：　her　breath　was　taken　away。

For　a　moment　she　was　unable　to　breathe　at　all；　the　view　had　knocked　the　wind

from　her。　They　were　standing　near　the　top　of　one　peak。　Across　from　them　—　who

knew　how　far？　—　an　even　taller　mountain　reared　into　the　sky；　its　jagged　tip　only

a　silhouette　that　was　now　nimbused　by　the　sun；　which　was　beginning　its　decline。

The　whole　valley　floor　was　spread　out　below　them；　the　slopes　that　they　had

climbed　in　the　laboring　bug　falling　away　with　such　dizzying　suddenness　that　she

knew　to　look　down　there　for　too　long　would　bring　on　nausea　and　eventual

vomiting。　The　imagination　seemed　to　spring　to　full　life　in　the　clear　air；　beyond

the　rein　of　reason；　and　to　look　was　to　helplessly　see　ones　self　plunging　down

and　down　and　down；　sky　and　slopes　changing　places　in　slow　cartwheels；　the　scream

drifting　from　your　mouth　like　a　lazy　balloon　as　your　hair　and　your　dress

billowed　out　。。。

She　jerked　her　gaze　away　from　the　drop　almost　by　force　and　followed　Jacks

finger。　She　could　see　the　highway　clinging　to　the　side　of　this　cathedral　spire；

switching　back　on　itself　but　always　tending　northwest；　still　climbing　but　at　a

more　gentle　angle。　Further　up；　seemingly　set　directly　into　the　slope　itself；　she

saw　the　grimly　clinging　pines　give　way　to　a　wide　square　of　green　lawn　and

standing　in　the　middle　of　it；　overlooking　all　this；　the　hotel。　The　Overlook。

Seeing　it；　she　found　breath　and　voice　again。
