For several years, Wally Lamb, the author of two of the most
beloved novels of our time, has run a writing workshop at the York
Correctional Institution, Connecticut's only maximum-security
prison for women. Writing, Lamb discovered, was a way for these
women to face their fears and failures and begin to imagine better
lives. "Couldn't Keep It to Myself," a collection of their essays,
was published in 2003 to great critical acclaim. With "I'll Fly
Away," Lamb offers readers a new volume of intimate pieces from the
York workshop. Startling, heartbreaking, and inspiring, these
stories are as varied as the individuals who wrote them, but each
illuminates an important core truth: that a life "can" be altered
through self-awareness and the power of the written word.
