The author is the letter writer. He has been involved in addiction recovery for almost 3 decades. Throughout this time, his mother has been his support and has loved him unconditionally. She has compiled and edited these personal letters with both courage and love. The letters in the book give the reader a true picture of incarceration in the U.S. of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Here is an inside look at the race relations, inmate jobs, the law officers and the family visits in a facility used to punish drug offenders at that time.
Letters from Camp

Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
In June 2007, Lee Stagni, an accomplished computer technology executive and advocate for disabled children began a 43-month journey through the Federal prison system that forever changed his life and the lives of those around him. Reading Letters from Camp— One Family’s Prison Story, we relive his experience through his weekly letters home, and gain added insight about his family’s struggles from his wife’s personal diary. The story chronicles life in two federal prisons; the residential drug abuse program (RDAP); the untimely death of his father and his attempts to attend the funeral; and ultimately his return to society through the halfway house and term of supervised release. Stagni’s observations and “lessons learned” are eye-openers. First-time white-collar offenders facing incarceration will discover what awaits them upon their arrival. Stagni and his wife tell their story with the hope that it might somehow help other families through the emotionally ravaging and sometimes terrifying odyssey that is prison.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Letters and Papers from Prison
Author: Martin E. Marty
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400838037
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
From National Book Award–winning author Martin Marty, the surprising story of a Christian classic born in a Nazi prison cell For fascination, influence, inspiration, and controversy, Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Letters and Papers from Prison is unmatched by any other book of Christian reflection written in the twentieth century. A Lutheran pastor and theologian, Bonhoeffer spent two years in Nazi prisons before being executed at age thirty-nine, just a month before the German surrender, for his role in the plot to kill Hitler. The posthumous Letters and Papers from Prison has had a tremendous impact on both Christian and secular thought since it was first published in 1951, and has helped establish Bonhoeffer's reputation as one of the most important Protestant thinkers of the twentieth century. In this, the first history of the book's remarkable global career, National Book Award-winning author Martin Marty tells how and why Letters and Papers from Prison has been read and used in such dramatically different ways, from the cold war to today. In his late letters, Bonhoeffer raised tantalizing questions about the role of Christianity and the church in an increasingly secular world. Marty tells the story of how, in the 1960s and the following decades, these provocative ideas stirred a wide range of thinkers and activists, including civil rights and antiapartheid campaigners, "death-of-God" theologians, and East German Marxists. In the process of tracing the eventful and contested history of Bonhoeffer's book, Marty provides a compelling new perspective on religious and secular life in the postwar era.

Book Description
”We are the rebels asking for the storm, and believing that truth is only to be found in an endless search ... Two years of prison for Pussy Riot is our tribute to a destiny that gave us sharp ears, allowing us to sound the note A when everyone else is used to hearing G flat.” In an extraordinary exchange of letters, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, imprisoned for taking part in Pussy Riot’s anti-Putin performance, and Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek discuss artistic subversion, political activism, and the future of democracy via the ideas of Hegel, Deleuze, Nietzsche, and even Laurie Anderson. Two radicals, one in a Russian forced labor camp, the other writing to her from far outside its walls, show passionately – across linguistic and generational divides – that “there is still a common cause worth fighting for.” Touching, erudite, and worldly, their correspondence unfolds with poetic urgency. In association with Philosophie Magazine.
