The No. 1 bestselling author Stephen King’s beloved novella, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption – the basis for the Best Picture Academy Award-nominee The Shawshank Redemption – about an unjustly imprisoned convict who seeks a strangely satisfying revenge, now available as a standalone book.

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.
