What Members Thought

5 🌠 🌠 🌠 🌠 🌠
For the book and for the author in recognition of his incredible work on behalf of those wrongly convicted to death or life in prison caught up in a system of blind justice and no hope.
Read by the author, this was compelling from start to finish and deserving of all the recognition and awards. I had no idea, really. All emotions possible will hit the reader; consciousness will be raised.
The film version has an expected U.S. release in January 2020 but read it first.

This is a very difficult book to read. And I'm talking about the subject matter. In the 1980's a young lawyer heads to Atlanta then to Alabama to help the deathrow inmates. Bryan Stevenson tells of the injustice, lies and deceit of several cases he covered. I have to admit that I wanted to come through the pages and throttle several people. Heartbreaking and also uplifting. We need more people in this world like the author.
