description: More a collection of essays and other writings than "conversations" per se, this work presents work penned by male prison inmates involved in postsecondary education programs behind prison walls. The collection is presented by Lichtman (English, Columbia College) with the intention of demonstrating the value of such programs. The writings sometimes directly reflect on inmates' experiences with educational programs but more often simply reveal their experiences of prison and education through essays, fiction, and poetry.
