Twenty-four hours is a lot of time in prison, and here is a moment to moment guide of how each one goes by.
A Day in Prison shows what life is like for prisoners from morning roll call to lights out. It tracks the many ins and outs of prison culture and provides a comprehensive look into the dynamics that define inmates' daily interactions with each other, prison guards, and prison administrators. It gives a full sense of the challenges-small and large-presented to inmates as they try to survive each day.
The book is structured like an actual day in prison, hour by hour, tracking where in the prison a prisoner would most likely be and what they would most likely be doing. It brings a clear sense of the unique environment that is a prison and makes sense of it for the reader, step-by-step. Based in the author's own experience, being incarcerated for eleven years, it is as realistic a guide to life in prison as any reader could have.
