Different Seasons: Four Novellas

Different Seasons: Four Novellas

Includes the stories â€œThe Bodyâ€ and â€œRita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemptionâ€â€”set in the fictional town of Castle Rock, Maine

A â€œhypnoticâ€ (The New York Times Book Review) collection of four novellasâ€”including the inspirations behind the films Stand By Me and The Shawshank Redemptionâ€”from Stephen King, bound together by the changing of seasons, each taking on the theme of a journey with strikingly different tones and characters.

This gripping collection begins with â€œRita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption,â€ in which an unjustly imprisoned convict seeks a strange and startling revengeâ€”the basis for the Best Picture Academy Award-nominee The Shawshank Redemption.

Next is â€œApt Pupil,â€ the inspiration for the film of the same name about top high school student Todd Bowden and his obsession with the dark and deadly past of an older man in town.

In â€œThe Body,â€ four rambunctious young boys plunge through the faÃ§ade of a small town and come face-to-face with life, death, and intimations of their own mortality. This novella became the movie Stand By Me.

Finally, a disgraced woman is determined to triumph over death in â€œThe Breathing Method.â€

â€œThe wondrous readability of his work, as well as the instant sense of communication with his characters, are what make Stephen King the consummate storyteller that he is,â€ hailed the Houston Chronicle about Different Seasons.
