Publisher Comments:An award-winning journalist's "heart wrenching" (The San Antonio Observer) look at children with parents in prison—a Newsweek "book of the week" and an East Bay Express bestseller. In this "moving condemnation of the U.S. penal system and its effect on families" (Parents' Press), award-winning journalist Nell Bernstein takes an intimate look at parents and children—over two million of them—torn apart by our current incarceration policy. Described as "meticulously reported and sensitively written" by Salon, the book is "brimming with compelling case studies...and recommendations for change" (Orlando Sentinel); Our Weekly Los Angeles calls it "a must-read for lawmakers as well as for lawbreakers." Synopsis:One in ten American children has a parent under criminal justice supervision--incarcerated, on probation, or on parole. Moving stories of real families show how the children of the incarcerated are routinely punished for their parents' status with minimal effort made to help them cope. About the AuthorNell Bernstein is an award-winning journalist and former Soros Justice Media Fellow at the Open Society Institute of New York whose articles have appeared in Newsday, Salon, Mother Jones, and the Washington Post, among other publications. She lives outside of Berkeley, California. What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details
