Description: "Letters to Ms. Em" are the reflections of Rainn - a young man who is presently doing life in prison. In 2006, he wrote a letter to Ms. Em which created a family-ship and changed both of their lives. In Rainn's letters and poems he shares his desire to be a part of a loving family; his attempts, beginning at ten-years-old to fight-off an abusive step-father in order to protect his mother; the calling of "the streets" and the anger and pain that followed him into adulthood resulting in a conviction of life without parole."--Back cover.
