Summary
Lamb once again reveals his talent for finding the humanity in the lost and lonely--a group of incarcerated women at the York Correctional Institution where he taught writing. His powerful Introduction describes the incredible process by which these women found their true voices, and how they challenged him as a teacher and as a writer. Photos throughout.
