这并非一本普通的平反冤案记录。真正击中读者的,是Anthony Ray Hinton在死牢里完成的自我救赎——当外部世界用电椅宣告他有罪时,他选择守住内心最后一块不可剥夺的领地:如何度过每一天。三十年的黑暗没有磨掉他的光芒,反而让'我知道我可以选择'成为支撑他活下去的元认知。书中后半段几乎让人含泪读完,正因为它触及了一个尖锐问题:如果'以命偿命'建立在从一开始就不公正的裁决之上,我们推崇的程序正义还剩下什么?它逼着读者重新审视那些被视为理所当然的信念。适合所有愿意追问'人'在制度中究竟处于什么位置的读者——它给出的答案既光明,又无比沉重。

因为看了 Just Mercy 而读的作品。被埋没了三十年的灵魂光芒不减。
从深渊而来,却始终向着太阳。
Never give up on your faith and most importantly,dont give up on yourself
14 hours. That’s how long I spent on reading this book. During this 14 hours I felt so frustrated because I just couldn’t understand why Ray was still in death row even though I knew he was released eventually. I can’t imagine how he felt during his 28 years in there without knowing the future.
