In A Whole New Way: Undoing Mass Incarceration by a Path Untraveled, edited by George Carrano and Jonathan Fisher provides a fascinating and thought-provoking look into the (broken and unjust) American prison system, focusing on probation and “second-chance” justice. Probation is largely punitive and its current design acts alternative form of incarceration, not an opportunity for redemption. The photography is both beautiful and stark, providing an alternative viewpoint to what most people turn a blind eye to. For anyone who is concerned about the American “Justice” System, this is a must- read and see.

Special thanks to Net Galley and Prospecta Publishing for providing an advanced reviewer copy to me in exchange for my honest review and opinion!

Wow this was so interesting. The photography is great and reading the stories to each gave a different perspective.

First and foremost the photography shots are the highlight of this collection. An introspective look at the cracks (more like a ravine) in the American justice system explores the life for those following incarceration. This collection stories, journeys, and expression of art is a highly impactful insight to those and each unique experience.
