Observations March 25, 2014 - Opusculum

Stephen King wrote that after finishing a regular long novel such as The Stand, he would have just enough steam left to write an opusculum, and I'm glad he did because I believe that Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption (movie, The Shawshank Redemption) and The Body (movie, Stand By Me) will long outlive most of the long novels in readership and movie viewings.
