Remember All Their Faces - Valerie Estelle Frankel - Bog

Orange Is The New Black offers much that no show ever has. First, it slams us inside an unseen world - not just a women's prison but its toilet stalls and secret storerooms. While our guide is the blonde yuppie Piper, we expand to meet Black women, Latina women, a Haitian, lesbians, a transvestite, the poor, and the elderly - all minorities generally sidelined. Now Remember All their Faces offers a guide, not just to characters, but to each one's deeper significance as we meet Flaca the flirt, Soso the hapless activist, and Janae, who's learned to keep her head down. The book also analyzes themes from community and corruption to the series' poignant cry for reform. It unfolds the real facts of federal prison to show where the program exaggerates and where it offers the utter truth.
