Extremely powerful saga! “Fox” grew up in an environment that led to petty crime, just to survive. While locked up he’s convicted of murder, but is innocent, and spends 40 years in solitary confinement. This is a story about institutionalized racism and inhumane conditions, but also about hope, and his unbreakable spirit and remaining sane, about friendship and inspiring and helping others. A superb memoir!

Pick up eye-opening books at Queen Anne Book Company and other independent bookstores. (You might have heard about this book on NPR; your local independent bookseller probably heard it, too, but they might have already read the book before it was on sale thanks to advance reading copies from the publisher, Grove Press.)
