    "Fitting Sentences is an analysis of writings by prisoners from nineteenth- and twentieth-century North America, South Africa, and Europe. Jason Haslam examines the ways in which these writers reconfigure subjectivity and its relationship with social power structures, especially the prison itself, while also detailing the relationship between prison and slave narratives. Specifically, Haslam reads texts by Henry David Thoreau, Harriet Jacobs, Oscar Wilde, Martin Luther King, Jr, Constance Lytton, and Breyten Breytenbach to find the commonalities and divergences in their stories."--BOOK JACKET

    "This book revisits the important question of whether the prison harms its inhabitants, its employees, prisoners' families, and others, and aims to redirect the conversation among academics, policy-makers and professionals on the effects of imprisonment. It brings together a group of leading scholars to examine the social, psychological, behavioural and emotional impacts of the incarceration experience on prisoners and their families (during and after their captivity) and on society. The Effects of Imprisonment will be essential reading for anyone with an interest in this field."--BOOK JACKET
