Life inside of prison

This is a true life account of a writer going to prison on drug possession. It is a portrait of life on the inside.

Poorly Written and Ideologically Driven

I've read lots of books about prison and this is one of the worst. It doesn't even explain well who the 5 types of people you'll meet in prison and the book constantly makes references to current year politics. It's similar to a lot of aspects of culture where far left political ideology is needlessly shoehorned into a place where it doesn't belong. I strongly recommend you find another book.
