Anonymous Prisoner 1 is a voracious reader and aspiring agent of positive change with over 20 years inside and an ear increasingly attuned to the “still, sad music of humanity” (Wordworth). From straight-A student but painfully shy and insecure child, to prisoner, to repeat prisoner, to “untreatable” prisoner, the author – out of sheer exhaustion and despair – has recently turned to meditation and Buddhism for help.
