Wilbert Rideau, an award-winning journalist who spent forty-four
years in prison, delivers a remarkable memoir of crime, punishment,
and ultimate triumph.
After killing a bank teller in a moment of panic during a botched
robbery, Wilbert Rideau was sentenced to death at the age of
nineteen. He spent several years on death row at Angola before his
sentence was commuted to life, where, as editor of the prison
newsmagazine "The Angolite," he undertook a mission to expose and
reform Louisiana's iniquitous justice system from the inside.
Vivid, incisive, and compassionate, this is a detailed account of
prison life and a man who accepted responsibility for his actions
and worked to redeem himself. It is a story about not giving up;
finding love in unexpected places; the power of kindness; and the
ability to do good, no matter where you are.
