Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption

I must say again how pleased I am to continue reading King. He is so brilliant, more than I ever knew. I saw the movie version of The Shawshank Redemption and enjoyed it. But the book is more massively amazing in its intellect, in its deepening psyche of the nature of being imprisoned. Who would have thought that reading bits of a man's life in prison could ever be interesting, much less spell-binding? Only King could deliver such a story.
