A first-person narrative told by Paul Edgecombe, the novel switches between Paul as an old man in the Georgia Pines nursing home sharing his story with fellow resident Elaine Connelly in 1996, and his time in 1932 as the block supervisor of the Cold Mountain Penitentiary death row, nicknamed "The Green Mile" for the color of the floor's linoleum. This year marks the arrival of John Coffey, a 6'8" powerfully built black man who has been convicted of raping and murdering two small white girls. During his time on the Mile, John interacts with fellow prisoners Eduard "Del" Delacroix, a Cajun arsonist, rapist, and murderer, and William Wharton ("Billy the Kid" to himself, "Wild Bill" to the guards), a wild-acting and dangerous multiple murderer who is determined to make as much trouble as he can before he is executed. Other inhabitants include Arlen Bitterbuck, a Native American convicted of killing a man in a fight over a pair of boots (also the first character to die in the electric chair); (5 years and 2437 days ago)

the photo is very beautiful, but does not show the title
Lincemiope, the story is told by Paul who at that time was at a nursing home... does not remember it?
I read the book and seen the movie, and I could not tell the story better than you have done.
but do not ask the guidelines set up by the plot. but the title.
I may be wrong, I'm not speaking English.
I always enjoy your work, you're good: if my comment is wrong, they lose

Dear lincemiope, I was thinking about and you are right. Perhaps my imagination was not very good in this case, but now ... I can't remove the photo! Well...tks again...nice week!
favourite book of all time. I cried for ages afterwards and couldn't read another book for 2 weeks because they all pale in comparison. I think your picture really works well depicting Paul thinking back whilst living at the nursing home. good luck with it.
Tks my friend, wish you a great week!
Howdie stranger!
