Fiction
Changing Lives through Literature
A University of Notre Dame Press anthology and account of a literature program run in Massachusetts prisons, where offenders read short stories and discussed them with judges and academics. The book mixes theory, anecdote, and selected texts. The cover is plain, the purpose is earnest, and the argument is testable. The Notre Dame binding is the standard academic paperback, with the subdued design that lets the premise speak for itself. Notre Dame priced it for educators rather than for the general trade. Ideal reader: the reader who believes fiction can change behavior, or the teacher looking for a program that treats literature as social practice rather than ornament.
