Few people come out of prison unchanged. It is a place full of suffering, where you will find dangerous, vulnerable, and forgotten people. But for Alex South, it was also a place where she found hope.
In this powerful and moving autobiography, Alex tries to make sense of her experiences in prison, confronting the harsh reality of life inside and examining it from different perspectives. In an overwhelmingly male-dominated environment, where power and aggression are at the forefront, Alex’s perspective is particularly significant.
Capturing the confusion and contradictions of prison, Alex portrays a life that is often hidden from the public. Changing our perceptions, the *Behind These Doors* reveals the many destructive, but often inspiring, outcomes that prison can have.
