At the end you see what the Green Mile is really about. The way this story is told, you really get to see the whole picture at the end. Love this book

“To kill each other with gas and electricity, and in cold blood? The folly. The horror.”

The Green Mile is one of Stephen King’s best books. Written as a serial novel, the story makes you feel empathy toward those whom society condemns, and hatred toward those whom society promotes. The electric chair represents a tool of permanence that we wield against uncertainty, and justice is often simple theatre for those who pretend otherwise. As the protagonist says, “sometimes there is no difference at all between salvation and damnation.“
