Description:After two intense court battles with prison officials, Rathbone gained unprecedented access to the otherwise invisible women of the oldest operating women's prison in America. The picture that emerges is both astounding and enraging. Women reveal the agonies of separation from family, and the prevalence of depression, sexual predation, and institutional malaise behind bars. But they also share their more personal hopes and concerns. There is horror in parison for sure, but Rathbone insists there is also humor and romance and downright bloody-mindedness.
