Mindful Writing from the County Jail
No Customer Reviews
"As the detainee read his writing aloud, his sparse words cracked open the siloed bravado of jail habitation that gives no quarter to vulnerability."
This collection presents over one hundred, micro-short stories written by men and women being held in county jails. It includes in jail color photos and amazing illustrations from currently and formerly incarcerated artists. The writings allow the reader to become a compassionate witness into the lives of jailed individuals and come away with an understanding of the background, humanity, and hope inherent in each story. The stories told expose crime from the vantage point of those within our community who carry its burden. A burden born of extreme poverty, untreated addiction, mental illness, institutional discrimination, and limited educational opportunities.
