上海龙凤shlf最新地址had gotten the job back in the late 20s because he had a college education. Brooksie's 

degree was in animal husbandry, true enough, but college educations in institutes of 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址lower learning like The Shank are so rare that it's a case of beggars not being able to be 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址choosers. 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址In 1952 Brooksie, who had killed his wife and daughter after a losing streak at poker 

back when Coolidge was President, was paroled. As usual, the state in all its wisdom had 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址let him go long after any chance he might have had to become a useful part of society 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址was gone. He was sixty-eight and arthritic when he tottered out of the main gate in his 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址Polish suit and his French shoes, his parole papers in one 'and and a Greyhound bus ticket 

in the other. He was crying "hen he left. Shawshank was his world. What lay beyond its 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址vails was as terrible to Brooks as the Western Seas had been to superstitious 13th-century 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址sailors. In prison, Brooksie had been a person of some importance. He was the head 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址librarian, in educated man. If he went to the Kittery library and asked or a job, they 

wouldn't give him a library card. I heard he lied in a home for indigent old folks up 

Freeport way in 1952, and at that he lasted about six months longer than I thought he 

would. Yeah, I guess the state got its own back on Brooksie, all right. They trained him to 

like it inside the shithouse and then they threw him out. 

Andy succeeded to Brooksie's job, and he was head librarian for twenty-three years. He 

used the same force of will I'd seen him use on Byron Hadley to get what he wanted for 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址the library, and I saw him gradually turn one small room (which still smelled of 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址turpentine because it had been a paint closet until 1922 and had never been properly 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址aired) lined with Reader's Digest Condensed Books and National Geographies into the 

best prison library in New England. 

He did it a step at a time. He put a suggestion box by the door and patiently weeded out 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址such attempts at humour as More Fuk-Boox Pleeze and Escape in 10 EZ Lesions. He got 

sold of the things the prisoners seemed serious about. He wrote to three major book clubs 

in New York and got two of them, The Literary Guild and The Book of the Month Club, 

to send editions of all their major selections to us at a special cheap rate. He discovered a 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址hunger for information on such snail hobbies as soap-carving, woodworking, sleight of 

hand, and card solitaire. He got all the books he could on such subjects. And those two 

jailhouse staples, Erie Stanley Gardener and Louis L'Amour. Cons never seem to get 

enough of the courtroom or the open range. And yes, he did keep a box of fairly spicy 

paperbacks under the checkout desk, loaning them out carefully and making sure they 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址always got back. Even so, each new acquisition of that type was quickly read to tatters. 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址He began to write to the state senate in Augusta in 1954. Staminas was warden by then, 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址and he used to pretend Andy was some sort of mascot He was always in the library, 

shooting the bull with Andy, and sometimes he'd even throw a paternal arm around 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址Andy's shoulders or give him a goose. He didn't fool anybody. Andy Dufresne was no 

one's mascot. 

He told Andy that maybe he'd been a banker on the outside, but that part of his life was 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址receding rapidly into his past and he had better get a hold on the facts of prison life. As 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址far as that bunch of jumped-up Republican Rotarians in Augusta was concerned, there 

上海龙凤shlf最新地址were only three viable expenditures of the taxpayers' money in the field of prisons and
