Reseña del libro "All Alone in the World: Children of the Incarcerated (en Inglés)"
A San Francisco Chronicle Best Book of the Year. "An urgent invitation to care for all children as our own." --Adrian Nicole LeBlanc, author of Random Family In this "moving condemnation of the U.S. penal system and its effect on families", award-winning journalist Nell Bernstein takes an intimate look at parents and children--over two million of them--torn apart by our current incarceration policy (Parents' Press). Described as "meticulously reported and sensitively written" by Salon, the book is "brimming with compelling case studies . . . and recommendations for change" (Orlando Sentinel). Our Weekly Los Angeles calls it "a must-read for lawmakers as well as for lawbreakers." "In terms of elegance, breadth and persuasiveness, All Alone in the World deserves to be placed alongside other classics of the genre such as Jonathan Kozol's Savage Inequalities, Alex Kotlowitz's There Are No Children Here and Adrian Nicole LeBlanc's Random Family. But to praise the book's considerable literary or sociological merit seems beside the point. This book belongs not only on shelves but also in the hands of judges and lawmakers." --San Francisco Chronicle "Well researched and smoothly written, Bernstein's book pumps up awareness of the problems, provides a checklist for what needs to be done and also cites organizations like the Osborne Society that provide parenting and literacy classes, counseling and support. The message is clear: taking family connections into account 'holds particular promise for restoring a social fabric rent by both crime and punishment.'" --Publishers Weekly, starred review
