In the late 1979, in the abandoned Overlook Hotel in the Rocky Mountains, where he had withdrawn with his family, Jack Torrance wrote his book. That same winter, he died under tragic circumstances. Torrance was a master of repetition. Again and again, he inscribed the same words, consistently avoiding any attempt to go beyond his initial statement.

M+M came across the manuscripts of Torrance during their stay in the tranquill idyll of the Villa Massimo in Rome, and were able to publish the volume All work and no play… twenty years after his death. In the meantime, this publication was also presented in diverse readings.
