Bill Simmons

ESPN, 2006

If you have ever read Bill Simmons, it's a must read!
I have read some of the articles before but not many of them. But I have followed him on ESPN and he is one of the most entertaining sportswriters that I know. I don't even like the Red Sox because I'm an Oakland fan, but he does make it very enjoyable. Definitely a must read if you like the Red Sox but a highly recommended one just based on his writing style!

Is It Ever Worth It?
Is committing a crime ever worth the time you have to do or the pain your family goes through while you are away? Reading about Seth Ferranti's first time in prison is crazy because it really is a world in itself. How do you distinguish who the real criminals are? The administrators are worst than the people who actually have committed the crime. The majority of people in jail don't realize ...

It needed six stars but the scale would not accomodate
I was forced to read my first King novel about fifteen years ago (it was the only book I had available still uread) and although I was not a lover of 'horror' novels, his were always such a cut above, that I read everyone since then and they were all good, however Shawshank Redemption is still a cut above them all. I found it in his Four Season's book after having seen the movie, and I was ...

Shawshank's Redemption: Another level...
Rita Haywood And The Shawshank's Redemption is a very stereotyped book. But that is good, because when you read it you think you can guess the ending. It is true in some way. The ending is as many experienced readers may guess. But it displays it in such an amazing twist, that you are overwhelmed. It surprises you. But let's focus in the history: Andy Dufresne Is a banker who is thrown to jail ...

Stephen King

Thorndike Pr, 1982

Stephen King on a story of unjust imprisonment and escape
If sometime late in the 21st century after he is long dead and gone Stephen King is rediscovered by literary critics as a regional writer who focused on his native main, they may well point to "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption" as the first work where the author divorced himself from the horror genre. This novella was originally published in the 1982 collection "Different Seasons," which ...

Great in depth exploration
As a rule, don't buy shooting scripts if you want to write a screenplay. Shooting scripts are finished products. That said, screenwriters can learn from this exploration of the classic movie (yes, folks, it is a classic, it's been shown a billion times on TNT), by reading the deleted scenes (my personal favorite is one about the publicity of Warden Norton's prison-to-work scheme, in which ...

Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption

Recorded Books Inc, 1994

Shawshank Redemption, from the best-selling collection Different Seasons, is a facinating example of why King has won the acclaim of critics who eschew horror novels. A dramatic story of redemption, the story of Andy Dufresne, a banker wrongly imprisoned for killing his wife and her lover.
