Incarcerated Epistles: Soul Of Recidivism

By Mr. Writers Blokc

Within three years of release, about two-thirds (67.8 percent) of released prisoners were rearrested. Within five years of release, about three-quarters (76.6 percent) of released prisoners were rearrested, according to national statistics. Incarcerated Epistles: Soul Of Recidivism is an introspective and candid look into just that statistic. Have you ever wondered what it was like in jail? Many ask what is the difference between jail and prison? Do you have a family member in prison? What do people really go through in there? Is it like the movies? Many questions, perceptions and misconceptions permeate our minds about the Prison Industrial Complex; but do we really stop and ask about what goes on inside the soul of a man behind bob wire fences and the proverbial "23/1". This book is a look into the psyche of the author as a newly processed inmate from interstate extradition from Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC) to Virginia Department of Corrections (VDOC), and his mentality through the beginning stages of recidivism. A compilation of letters written from different jails/prisons have been compiled alongside edifying writings during a two year period(10 years total) of incarceration as a cautionary tale for youth to not indulge or act on criminal thinking, instant gratification, and other catalyst of destructive behavior; in juxtaposition to inspire other felons to not re-offend and succumb to the vicious cycle of recidivism. These writings serve to be a testament that will stand the test of time for the youth, civilian, felons, law enforcement, courts, judges, and legislation to all learn and make the necessary changes for the greater good of the existence of humanity.
