VOICES: Memoirs from Herstory Inside Suffolk County’s Correctional Facilities, edited by Linda Coleman and Lonnie Mathis: This 104 page anthology is set up not only to give the women whom our society incarcerates a face, but to raise the most important questions facing families undergoing cycles of imprisonment, rupture of relationships, and closed doors.  Providing a wealth of facts for students of criminology, sociology and law, it is an essential reader for all who are involved in decision-making around incarceration.
