Une force de caractère qui lui vient de loin, comme ces mémoires le décrivent avec vigueur, chaleur, tendresse, colères et humour aussi.

His story of an adult life spent in one of Louisiana's harshest prisons is amazing, not only because he has survived with his soul intact, but because it provides such a raw look at the inner workings of a system bent on revenge, not rehabilitation.
