Book Description

Praise for Solitary: FINALIST FOR THE PULITZER PRIZE IN GENERAL NONFICTION

FINALIST FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD IN NONFICTION Named One of Barack

Obama’s Favorite Books of 2019 Named the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities Book of

the Year Named a Best Book of the Year by the New York Times, the Washington Post, NPR,

Publishers Weekly, BookBrowse, and Literary Hub Winner of the BookBrowse Award for Best

Debut of 2019 A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice “An uncommonly powerful

memoir about four decades in confinement . . . A profound book about friendship . . . Woodfox

reminds us, in Solitary, of the tens of thousands of men, women, and children in solitary

confinement in the United States. This is torture of a modern variety. If the ending of this book

does not leave you with tears pooling down in your clavicles, you are a stronger person than I am.

More lasting is Woodfox’s conviction that the American justice system is in dire need of

reform.”―Dwight Garner, New York Times “A candid, heartbreaking, and infuriating chronicle .

. . as well as a personal narrative that shows how institutionalized racism festered at the core of

our judicial system and in the country’s prisons . . . It’s impossible to read Solitary and not feel

anger . . . A timely memoir of that experience that should be required reading in the age of the

Black Lives Matter movement. It’s also a story of conviction and humanity that shows some

spirits are unbreakable.”―NPR “Heart-rending . . . Solitary is Woodfox’s pointillist account of an

already boxed-in childhood and adolescence in the streets of New Orleans―by his own

admission, an existence marked by ignorance and devoted to petty and increasingly serious

crime―and the near entirety of an intellectually and spiritually expansive adulthood spent in one

of the most brutal prisons in the country (and therefore the world) . . . Some of the most touching

writing on platonic male friendship I have every encountered . . . ‘We must imagine Sisyphus

happy,’ Camus famously wrote, and such a prompt is the ennobling virtue at the core of Solitary.

It lifts the book above mere advocacy or even memoir and places it in the realm of stoic

philosophy.”―Thomas Chatterton Williams, New York Times Book Review “Wrenching,

sometimes numbing, sometimes almost physically painful to read. You want to turn away, put the

book down: Enough, no more! But you can’t, because after forty-plus years, the very least we

owe Woodfox is attention to his story . . . [Solitary’s] moral power is so overwhelming . . .

Solitary should make every reader writhe with shame and ask: What am I going to do to help

change this?”―Washington Post “Solitary is evidence of Woodfox’s extraordinary mental

resilience in the face of relentless state cruelty. The pacing is brisk, with brief stops to reflect on

the United States’ mass incarceration of black people, Woodfox’s black identity, and his personal

philosophy, much of it centered on the Black Panther Party’s 10-Point Program. Woven together,

these strands form an indictment of the U.S. criminal justice system that should be read for

generations.”―Globe and Mail “We have had the opportunity to read a new book called Solitary

by Albert Woodfox. Anyone who believes in capital punishment should read it . . . We should

consider the story of Albert Woodfox. How can you call for the death penalty when you know an

innocent man could be in the gallows? Is that risk civilized society can take? Not here, not now.

Not ever again.”―Art Cullen, Storm Lake Times “[Woodfox’s] incredible story is necessary

reading, not only to understand our era of mass incarceration, but the entire history of the judicial

system in America.”―Town & Country “In this devastating, superb memoir, Woodfox reflects on

his decades inside the Louisiana prison system . . . The book is a stunning indictment of a judicial


system ‘not concerned with innocence or justice,’ and a crushing account of the inhumanity of

solitary confinement. This breathtaking, brutal, and intelligent book will move and inspire

readers.”―Publishers Weekly (starred review) “In beautifully poetic language that starkly

contrasts the world he’s describing, Woodfox awes and inspires. He illustrates the power of the

human spirit, while illuminated the dire need for prison reform in the United States. Solitary is a

beautiful blend of passion, terror, and hope that everyone needs to experience.”―Shelf

Awareness (starred review) “A man who spent four decades in solitary confinement for a crime

he did not commit tells his shocking story . . . Woodfox explains how he overcame [brutal

conditions] despite relentless despair . . . An important story for these times . . . An astonishing

true saga of incarceration that would have surely faced rejection if submitted as a novel on the

grounds that it could never happen in real life.”―Kirkus Reviews “Solitary is an astounding story

and makes clear the inhumanity of solitary confinement. How Albert Woodfox maintained his

compassion and sense of hope throughout his ordeal is both amazing and inspiring.”―Ibram X.

Kendi, author of Stamped from the Beginning, winner of the National Book Award “Sage,

profound and deeply humane, Albert Woodfox has authored an American testament. Solitary is

not simply an indictment of the cruelties, absurdities and hypocrisies of the criminal justice

system, it is a call to conscience for all who have allowed these acts to be done in our

name.”―Jelani Cobb, author of The Substance of Hope “A man who would not be broken. Not

by more than 40 years of solitary in Angola, not by maddening injustice in courts, not by beatings,

isolation, or loneliness. Albert’s courage, wisdom, and kindness will inspire all who fight for

social justice and have the good sense to read this book.”―Barry Scheck, Co-Founder of the

Innocence Project “Albert Woodfox’s extraordinary life story is both an inspiring triumph of the

human spirit and a powerful call for the necessity of prison reform.”―Van Jones, President of the

Dream Corps and Host of CNN’s “The Van Jones Show” “Albert Woodfox shares his coming-ofage

story with crystal clear-eyed perspective, holding nothing back as he unwraps the unvarnished

truth of his life. Deftly weaving the undeniable threads of race, class, and systemic inequities that

made his story―and so many similar ones―possible, his journey of resilience, perseverance,

growth, and triumph is at once a cautionary tale, a challenge to all we think we know about the

justice system, and an inspiring testimony to the power of the human spirit.”―Reverend Leah

Daughtry, co-author of For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Politics “Solitary is the stunning

record of a hero’s journey. In it a giant, Albert Woodfox, carries us boldly and without apology

through the powerful, incredibly painful yet astonishingly inspiring story of a life lived virtually

in chains. He is, as readers will learn, a ‘Man of Steel.’ Every white person in America must read

this book. It should be required reading for every advocate of ‘law and order,’ every prosecutor,

every warden, every prison guard and every police officer in America. It should be taught in every

law school and every political science class. And any ‘public servant’ currently holding a local,

state or federal office who refuses to read it should step down. As a citizen of the United States,

this book embarrasses me deeply. And it makes me furious.”―Mike Farrell, author of Just Call

Me Mike and Of Mule and Man
