When it first appeared, one volume per month, Stephen King's The
Green Mile was an unprecedented publishing triumph: all six volumes
ended up on the New York Times bestseller list -- simultaneously --
and delighted millions of fans the world over.
Welcome to Cold Mountain Penitentiary, home to the Depression-worn men
of E Block. Convicted killers all, each awaits his turn to walk the Green
Mile, keeping a date with "Old Sparky," Cold Mountain's electric
chair. Prison guard Paul Edgecombe has seen his share of oddities in his
years working the Mile. But he's never seen anyone like John Coffey, a man
with the body of a giant and the mind of a child, condemned for a crime
terrifying in its violence and shocking in its depravity. In this place of
ultimate retribution, Edgecombe is about to discover the terrible,
wondrous truth about Coffey, a truth that will challenge his most
cherished beliefs...and yours.
