With a profession, a boyfriend, and a adoring family, Piper Kerman hardly resembles the reckless young girl who supplied a suitcase of medication money 10 years ago. But that history has caught up with her. Convicted and sentenced to 15 months at the infamous federal correctional center in Danbury, Connecticut, the well-heeled Smith School alumna is now inmate #11187-424 - one of the an incredible number of women who disappear "down the rabbit gap" of the North american penal system. From her first strip search to her final release, Kerman discovers to get around this weird world using its strictly enforced rules of action and arbitrary rules, where in fact the uneasy romance between prisoner and jailer is constantly and unpredictably recalibrated. She meets women from all walks of life, who amaze her with small tokens of generosity, hard words of knowledge, and simple acts of approval. Heartbreaking, hilarious, and sometimes enraging, Orange is the New Black color offers a rare check out the lives of women in prison, why it is we lock so many away, and what goes on to them when they're there.
