The Shawshank Redemption

De: Stephen King

Narrado por: Frank Muller

#1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King's beloved novella Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption, originally published in his 1982 collection Different Seasons and adapted into the 1994 film classic The Shawshank Redemption, now available as a stand-alone edition.

In the most satisfying tale of unjust imprisonment and offbeat escape since The Count of Monte Cristo, new and established King fans alike are swept away to King's mythical Maine woodland of Castle Rock for this suspenseful, mysterious, and ultimately heartfelt story of an innocent convict seeking a startling revenge. Even among King's uniformly beloved and ubiquitous works of fiction, this short story stands out for its unforgettable characters and as the inspiration for the Academy Award–nominated film The Shawshank Redemption. This modern classic is as fresh today as it was in 1982, when it was published alongside "The Body," "Art Pupil," and "The Breathing Method" in Different Seasons.

definitely the best book I've listened to all year!

while the narrative is somewhat along the lines of the movie, the Storyteller goes into much more depth than the movie ever could. I really enjoyed this book the orator was magnificent!

As usual, better than the movie

The attention to the details, as well as a reading but someone who sounds similar to Morgan Freeman made this listen outstanding.

A new story

I was expecting to just hear a text version of the film, but I ended getting a lot more.

The Shawshank Redemption

An amazing story that sees hope be the main focus of the book and see Andy and Red win together in the end!

Wonderful story and movie.

I've always loved this movie. The book is a bit different like always but the screenplay followed fairly close.
I'll be watching the movie tonight for sure. I can't help it.
