Outside is the world from which she has been severed: the San Francisco of her youth and her young son, Jackson. Inside is a new reality: thousands of women hustling for the bare essentials needed to survive; the bluffing and pageantry and casual acts of violence by guards and prisoners alike; and the deadpan absurdities of institutional living, which Kushner evokes with great humor and precision."--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Women prisoners $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Control (Psychology) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Marginality, Social $z United States $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l ORAX826 $d 20210702010232.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C7BC9E32AF6A11E9816CD31097128E48 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
