by San Quentin Nine

(Softcover) An anthology of short stories, both fiction and memoir, written by inmates at San Quentin State Prison. The stories in this collection run the gamut from dancing bears to crucifixion, childhood memoir to prison eulogy, heroic adventure to philosophical musing, and just plain fiction. The writers, mostly lifers, have each selected stories or excerpts from their ample and ever-growing supply to include in this volume. Writers include Kenny Brydon, Tharon Hill, Ronin, Ernie Laszlo, Watani Stiner, B. Vejvoda, J. B. Wells, Gary Wesley, and Michael Willis. All proceeds from the sale of the book go through the William James Association to support this creative writing class through the Arts-in-Corrections program.
