Exploring the lives of men serving life sentences for aggravated murder, this narrative delves into their experiences within a maximum-security prison through a Lifers' Writing Group led by author Lauren Kessler. Over three years, the group reveals their pasts and the complexities of their emotions, grappling with guilt and the notion of hope. Kessler confronts the contrasting themes of rehabilitation versus punishment and forgiveness versus blame, offering a profound insight into the realities of life behind bars and the American penal system.
