She takes readers to the torturous final moments of death row inmates while considering the often heinous crimes that led to their sentences. Thoughtful and profound, Bruenig's writing negotiates the culture of violence in America, asking what's at stake when we refuse to see the humanity in those who have done the inhumane.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 364.66097 Br Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 364.66097 Br Checked In Add Copy to MyList
