One of our goals as a publisher is to ensure our titles found their way into library systems both for purposes of equity and legitimacy. Equity because anyone with a library card has access. Legitimacy because libraries place a premium on both the cultural relevance, interest and value of the books they acquire. We’re happy to report the Seattle Public Library system will soon offer, Zek: An American Prison Story.

If you’re in the Seattle area, place a hold on a copy at your local branch.

Zek – The Seattle Public Library

Zek – Longworth, Arthur – A day in the life of prisoner Jonny Anderson, a young man who has been incarcerated in the Washington State Penitentiary in Walla Walla since he was a teenager. Utilizing the literary structure of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich, it lays bare the brutality of life behind bars.
