    Story
    What made the experience of listening to Life After Death the most enjoyable?

    The in depth description of poverty and coming of age in a world so different than my own.The idea of how a person overcomes life in prison and finds a way to cope. And I loved that Damien read his own words...powerful!


    What was one of the most memorable moments of Life After Death?

    The fact that Damien found a way to stay sane in an insane circumstance.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    Scene after scene of difficulty for Damian proves that I can hold onto hope in my reality.


    If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

    Already done.


    Any additional comments?

    This book is a must read! I think all professors dealing with social issues should require everyone to read this. A real eye opener of poverty, the prison system, the justice system, religion and spirituality.

    At 22, Cheryl Strayed thought she had lost everything. In the wake of her mother's death, her family scattered and her own marriage was soon destroyed. Four years later, with nothing more to lose, she made the most impulsive decision of her life: to hike the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State - and to do it alone. She had no experience as a long-distance hiker, and the trail was little more than “an idea, vague and outlandish and full of promise.” But it was a promise of piecing back together a life that had come undone.

    Would you listen to Wild again? Why?

    I would listent to wild over and over again because it offers so many life lessons that may not be absorbed the first time.
