True Notebooks: A Writer's Year at Juvenile Hall by Mark Salzman


True Notebooks is haunting, honest and saddening.

It is written with intelligence, humanity and sensitivity. It teaches everyone a lesson(s) and impacts they way one views all juvenile delinquencies.

At times passages can drag and become tiresome but the insights that these young men write about inspire you to continue reading.
