There is such a novel, which was first published and no one cared about, but accidentally became popular in prison decades later. The novel is called The Shawshank Redemption and is written by Stephen King. The book also has a poetic subtitle, meaning "Hope of Spring." In the 90s, the rights to the book were bought by director Frank De la Bonte, adapted into a film, and released in 1995. The film did not sell well when it was first released, but it successfully gathered a large number of word-of-mouth and awards in the later stage with excellent content.

A shooting with no conclusive evidence, but obvious to everyone, changed the life of the male protagonist Andy. He was charged with shooting and jailed, an unacceptable disaster and a catastrophe for anyone, and almost everyone cried out in despair on their first day in prison. Crying is a flu, and once someone opens the head, almost no one can avoid being infected. The old people in prison gamble with this every time.
But Andy didn't cry. In the face of this disaster that was completely an unjust case for him, he showed surprising strength. This also made the almighty king In prison, Red, look at him with astonishment. Andy, after getting acquainted with the prisonmates, confessed to them that he had not committed a crime, which caused a burst of laughter, and their response was: No one is guilty in this prison, and everyone declares that they are not guilty. From this point of view, the prisoners all think that Andy is lying to himself. Even the audience cannot believe this protagonist, because human nature cannot be seen at a glance.

While Andy and his fellow inmates are repairing the roof under the supervision of the guards, Andy learns from the prison guards that the latter is struggling with the land tax, and Andy uses his previous knowledge as a banker to help the prison guards solve the problem, and he asks for only one reward: a cold beer for his friends. Red looked at Andy, who was smiling happily in the sunset, and thought that this was the first time he had felt so free in so many years in prison.
After this, many prison guards came to Andy to consult about related financial matters, and even the warden came to Andy to help make false accounts. To that end, Andy demanded that the prison library be repaired, insisted on writing letters to the League asking for books, and even openly used the radio to play opera songs on a sunny afternoon. Andy's actions made all prisoners who had been oppressed by the system and lost their human rights feel free for a long time.

What really saved Andy was his love of life and his quest for freedom.
