Book 73: Shakespeare Saved My Life

I forgot to post about a book!

Shakespeare Saved My Life

This one was excellent. Laura Bates reads and discusses Shakespeare with inmates in solitary confinement and supermax prisons, what our society considers its most dangerous criminals. Many of these men dropped out of junior high school, and yet I'm afraid in many cases their Shakespearean analysis puts me, someone with an English B.A., to shame.

This was such an amazing look into prison life, and what can be done to rehabilitate inmates.
