So, this book doesn't have aliens, an apocalypse, space travel, or a horror show of any kind outside of human indecency. Jack, five years old and born into captivity, narrates his experience in Room. It's an 11x11 foot shed in the backyard of Old Nick, the man who kidnapped Jack's Ma seven years ago, but it's Jack's whole world. To him, it seems like a big one, but Jack is growing up and his Ma is desperate for both of them to escape.
