Description

Having a sweetheart, a profession, and a caring household, Piper Kerman hardly resembles 10 years previously the careless young lady who shipped a luggage of medication cash. But that past has swept up with her. Charged and sentenced to fifteen weeks in the notorious national correctional facility in Danbury, Connecticut, the well-heeled Smith College alumna has become prisoner #11187-424—one of the an incredible number of girls who vanish “down the bunny hole” of the American penal system. From her first reel research to her ultimate launch, Kerman discovers to understand this weird planet using its totally enforced codes of conduct and haphazard principles, where in actuality the uneasy partnership between jailer and captive is continually and unexpectedly recalibrated.
