The story takes place across decades of prison life so as you can imagine much is skipped over in the prose across that 100 pages with only certain events looked at in detail.

I sorted my King novels out last weekend and collected them all together in one place. I had no idea i had two copies of Different Seasons.

I'll let myself off though seeing as they have two wildly different covers and differing titles too.
I have the one on the right. If I remember rightly it also contains The Langoliers? One of my favourite of Kings works. The TV movie is great and I actually thought the story was even better. I think Apt Pupil and The Body are the other two in that book.
