Stephen King:Different Seasons~Shawshank Redemption

I realized that most people in prison back in the 50's and 60's. Its wierd how back then it wasn't as bad of an environment to be in as it is today. If I ever went to prison I would want my prison to be like Shawshank's. There are less gangs and alot less violence.

I'd like to know why there is no conflict in the story yet. Most stories would address what the conflict is and who the conflict affects. It is a very unorthodox writer that wrote this story. Also I'd like to know why I don't know the main characters name yet.

If I were the author I would have addressed the conflict in my story by now. Rita Hayworth writes books very unusually. I have never read a book that takes this long to address the actual conflict. Books aren't as good if their is no conflict.

I was reminded of stories like holes that have similar plots. In holes Stanley Yelnats has the same kind of experience, because he is also in prison. The only difference is that Stanley accidently got put into prison, whereas the character from Shawshank redemption got put there for a reason.

I noticed that I do not know the main characters name yet in the story! it is actually kind of frustrating not knowing the main characters name in the book. If someone asked me the main characters name, I would not know what to tell them.
