This updated, graphic presentation is yet another way for others, hopefully a new generation, to witness the inhumane treatment of those in our prisons.\"-John Grisham\n\nGrowing up in a middle-class Roman Catholic family in the Jim Crow South, Sister Helen Prejean had resisted the idea that religious faith could be harnessed into social justice until dramatic changes sweeping the Catholic Church in the 1960s and '70s landed her in the heart of the New Orleans housing projects.\n\nThere, she was asked to write a letter to Patrick Sonnier-a man sentenced to die in Louisiana's electric chair for the murder of two teenagers. When Sonnier wrote back, Prejean's life irrevocably altered course. She came to know a man who was as terrified as he had once been terrifying, as well as the victims' families and the men who were charged with putting Sonnier to death.\n\nFor more than four decades, Prejean has worked alongside the convicted, as well as the families of victims, to abolish the death penalty, a sentence often determined by race, economic status, and geography.\n\nThis graphic adaptation of Prejean's memoir offers an accessible way to engage with one of the most complex moral and emotional issues facing our country. Rose Vines skillfully interlaces recent developments with the original account, amplifying its relevance for today's readers. Catherine Anyango Gr newald's illustrations urge us to grapple with the humanity of this story, drawing an evocative, unforgettable portrait of mercy and justice.","brand":"Penguin Random House NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47288415158508,"sku":"9780593134856","price":50.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/4338353482399.jpg?v=1770550643"},{"product_id":"catalyst-by-sonia-leong-9781914224027","title":"CATALYST","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver three months of 2021, eight exceptional and emerging comic-book artists have been mentored by four established graphic novel creators. \u003cem\u003eCatalyst\u003c\/em\u003e is the result.
