Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption Stephen King

There’s a guy like me in every state and federal prison in America, I guess – I’m the guy who can get it for you.

And new convict Andy Dufresne wants two things from fellow prisoner Red: a small rock-hammer for carving stones and a giant poster of Rita Hayworth.

So begins this mesmerising tale of unjust imprisonment, deep friendship and offbeat escape.

Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption is one of King’s most celebrated stories, and it helped make Castle Rock a place readers would return to over and over again. Suspenseful, heart-wrenching and hopeful, this iconic King novella is populated by a cast of unforgettable characters, especially the fiercely compelling convict named Andy Dufresne who is seeking his ultimate revenge.
