i just got done reading After the Madness, by sol wachtler. prison memoirs from the former chief judge of the new york state of appeals. he'll occasionally get into how he would have or wouldn't have changed his decisions about certain cases if he had known what it was like in federal prison. there's also a ton of information about the war on drugs. all in all, a really good read and i'd highly recommend it.
i just started reading Join Me, by danny wallace. another set of memoirs by a journalist in england who accidentally started a cult. he placed an ad in a london paper with the words "join me" and people started responding. it ended up getting much bigger than he had ever planned. only 100 or so pages into it, but i'm extremely entertained by it. i'd recommend this one also.
wow, you have a great taste in literature. thanks for the tips!
