Show Notes

In this week's review, I begin a six-week journey through Stephen King's novella collection: Different Seasons, beginning with the first story: "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption." Widely considered one of Stephen King's best stories, it laid the groundwork for the classic film and is used as an example of how Stephen King is so much more than just a "horror" writer. 

Make sure to come back next week as I examine Frank Darabont's beloved film adaptation.
