Pages 48-58 Response

In pages 48-58 of Shawshank Redemption only one main thing has happened. In pages 48-58 we learn that Andy Dufresne has become the financial wiz of the prison. Andy now manages the finances of almost all of the guards and even the warden. Andy has used his financial expertise to drastically improve the condition of the library by filling it with new and useful books to help the prisoners that will eventually be released have some hope in the future. Andy now manages most of the prison's finances and Andy's job of cleaning the laundry in the laundry room has been switched to maintaining the library. Andy has been offering to do all of these financial things for things in return. For example Andy is doing financial things for his own cell, extra protection from the guards, and beer for his friends. I think that in the next ten pages that Andy will continue to have financial success with the prison staff  and he will start to manipulate them aswell.
