Summary:
"In 2003, fresh out of New York University, Daniel Genis was working in publishing as his writer father had always expected. But he was also hiding a serious heroin addiction that led him into debt and burglary. After he was arrested for robbing people at knifepoint in 2003, Daniel Genis was nicknamed the "apologetic bandit" in the press, given his habit of apologizing to his victims as he took their cash. He was sentenced to twelve
years
(ten with good behavior), surviving the decade by reading 1,046
books
, weightlifting, having philosophical discussions with various inmates, encountering violence on a daily basis, working at a series of
prison
jobs, and in general observing an existence for which nothing in his life had prepared him."--From publisher.
