As I Hear the Rain (Pen America Prison Writing Awards Anthology #2)

Description

May this anthology serve a multitude of purposes: may it introduce new readers to exceptional works, may vividly depicted shared experiences speak to the other writers in this book, may the work inform those without relationship to anyone held in United States prisons, may a reader forget the work was written from prison, altogether. May this book inspire literary communities to more intentionally include the work of incarcerated writers, and may it lead to new paths for both writers and readers alike.
