Literary Journalism Goes Inside Prison: Just Sentences

English

Literary Journalism Goes Inside Prison: Just Sentences opens up a new exploration of literary journalism immersive, long-form journalism so beautifully written that it can stand as literature in the first anthology to examine literary journalism and prison.

In this book, a wide range of compelling subjects are considered. These include Nelson Mandela and other prisoners of apartheid; the made-in-prison podcast Ear Hustle; womens experiences of life behind bars; Behrouz Boochanis 2018 bestseller No Friend but the Mountains; George Orwells artful writing on incarceration; Pete Earleys immersion into the largest prison in the United States, The Hot House; Arthur Koestler and the Spanish Civil War; Ted Conovers year as a prison guard in Newjack: Guarding Sing Sing and (most originally) Bruce Springsteens execution narrative Nebraska.

This volume will benefit anyone who writes, studies or teaches any form of narrative nonfiction. Eleven international scholars articulate what makes the work they are analysing so exceptional. At the same time, they offer insights on a diverse range of vital topics. These include journalism ethics, journalism and trauma, media history, cultural studies, criminology and social justice.
