About this product

Product Information

Over the course of five years, journalist Elizabeth Greenwood followed the ups and downs of five couples who met while incarcerated. In Love in the Time of Incarceration, she pulls back the curtain on the boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands, and wives supporting some of the 2.3 million Americans in prisons. Greenwood infiltrates spaces many of us have only heard whispers of-she sits across a visiting room table from a woman involved in a double homicide and walks a bride down the aisle at a prison wedding. She dines with couples who have weathered decades of separation. Running the gamut of sexual orientation, race, and circumstances of incarceration, these couples illustrate just a few of the myriad experiences people face as they navigate the corrections system. Greenwood's compassionate examination of love in the prison industrial complex will change the way you look at American prisons and deepen the way you think about love.

Reviews
"Moving seamlessly between the intimate and the institutional, [Greenwood] remains alert to the injustices of the system while capturing the romance of her subjects' stories." -- The New Yorker, "Prison love, Greenwood's complex and thoughtful investigative journalism reveals, is equal in a very real sense--both sides are intent upon delivering what the other needs. While burdened by a thousand obstacles, bureaucracies, and the very real physical separation of walls, barbed wire and armed guards, they never quite lose their focus on each other. It is somewhat beguiling, this possibility of deep connection, which requires time and paper and a sort of intentionality that the free world takes for granted. It is ironic, too, that it is the kept apart, the imprisoned, who would reveal the necessity of it." -- The Baffler, "Thorough, empathetic immersive journalism, Love Lockdown is a testament to the power of action, belief, and hope--and urges us to rethink the toll of mass incarceration on loved ones who live free, but with force fields around their hearts and lives." --Sarah Weinman, author of The Real Lolita and editor of Unspeakable Acts: True Tales of Crime, Murder, Deceit & Obsession, "An empathetic and well-characterized book that will add complexity to debates about mass incarceration." -- Kirkus Reviews

The ordering process was easy and fast and the price was good. I did not have to wait long for delivery; the book was well packaged and arrived in excellent condition. It was listed on the website as "very good" but it actually looked brand new. All in all, very pleased with the entire experience and will definitely use ebay again.
