[315]-327). 520 $a With a career, a boyfriend, and a loving family, Piper Kerman barely resembles the reckless young woman who delivered a suitcase of drug money ten years before. But that past has caught up with her. Convicted and sentenced to fifteen months at the infamous federal correctional facility in Danbury, Connecticut, the well-heeled Smith College alumna is now inmate #11187-424--one of the millions of people who disappear "down the rabbit hole" of the American penal system. From her first strip search to her final release, Kerman learns to navigate this strange world with its strictly enforced codes of behavior and arbitrary rules. She meets women from all walks of life, who surprise her with small tokens of generosity, hard words of wisdom, and simple acts of acceptance. 600 10 $a Kerman, Piper 610 20 $a Federal Correctional Institution (Danbury, Conn.) 650 0 $a Women prisoners $z Danbury $z Danbury 650 0 $a Reformatories for women $z Danbury $z Danbury 730 0 $a Orange is the new black (Television program) 941 $a 5 952 $l GMPD771 $d 20230210014228.0 952 $l BWPD851 $d 20210427012330.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210025135.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006053236.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20160202073522.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DC78835E506E11E5B3EDBC9EDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
