Detailing the experience of a five-year-old boy named Jack and his mother. The narrative, told from Jack’s perspective, chronicles their life confined to a single room—a shed referred to simply as "Room"—by their captor, known as Old Nick. The story progresses through different sections titled Presents, Unlying, Dying, After, and Living, marking the timeline from Jack's fifth birthday to their eventual escape and subsequent adjustment to the outside world, which Jack initially believes is only real via television. The text also includes an epigraph from a poem by Simonides and a list of other works by the author, confirming the source is a work of fiction.
