EVENT: Talk & booksigning with Author, Adria Libolt Sept 20th @schulerbooks #michlit #michigan #books

Thursday, September 20th at 7:00pm  Talk & booksigning with Adria Libolt, author of A Deputy Warden's Reflections on Prison Work A Deputy Warden's Reflection on Prison Work is a picture of prison life from the inside. It illustrates prison life as, at turns, exciting, surprising, distressing and, often, amusing. Each day is different and anyone who walks through a prison gate had better be alert. It tells of the small human dramas that play out daily among staff, prisoners, and others who enter this gated world. In prisons, we meet the same cast of characters, the same temptations, the same dangers, and the same rewards as on the outside. Rather than regarding prisons as separate worlds, we should regard them as extensions of the society in which we live because there is a continuous flow between prisons and the broader society. Understanding how prisons work will help us as we consider how to reintegrate former prisoners into our society.  Adria L. Libolt worked as a deputy warden in the Michigan Department of Corrections for over twenty years, managing prisons with both male and female prisoners. She now works with ex-offenders.         1982 Grand River Ave  .  Lansing, MI 48864  .  517.349.8840 www.SchulerBooks.com September marks 30 years of Schuler Books.
