Crosswinds

Description:

"Through anecdotal memoirs, a dedicated but conflicted GED teacher recounts his experience within an incarcerated-youth, jail classroom. A rare inside look of daily jail life and the ensuing emotional chaos. Although the sanity of the teacher may at times be questionable, this work is an informed critical look at US conventional education and "rehabilitative incarceration." Hilarious and horrific. Be prepared for uncensored student language and some raw drama."--Taken from publisher website.
