Synopsis
The Green Mile: Paul Edgecombe looks back on his years supervising death row at Cold Mountain Penitentiary. The arrival of John Coffey, a gentle prisoner convicted of a terrible crime, unsettles the guards because his nature and abilities do not fit the case against him. As Paul and his colleagues witness unexplained events, they confront questions of justice, cruelty, compassion, and the limits of what they can change.
Verification Summary
Verified Edition
The photographed copy is the one-volume Scribner hardcover published in 2000, not the six-part 1996 Signet serial issue. The copyright page states First Scribner edition 2000 and lists ISBN 0-684-87050-6. The workbook Year remains 1996 because Year was outside the approved update fields; Collector Notes records the edition-year distinction.
