The prison book club [electronic resource]

Walmsley, Anne2015
eBook
After Ann Walmsley was mugged near her home, she found she was unable to walk alone down the street and it shook her belief in the fundamental goodness of people. A few years later, when a friend asked her to participate in a bold new venture at a men's medium security prison, she had to weigh her curiosity and desire to be of service with her anxiety and fear. But she signed up and for 18 months went to a remote building a few hours outside of Toronto, meeting a group of heavily tattooed book club members without the presence of guards or security cameras. This is her account of how a book club on the inside proved to be a place to share ideas, learn about each other ... and regain humanity.
