Summary
"From inside the walls of women's prisons in Nova Scotia, this is a book of poetry and art that challenges the nature of prisons to keep people isolated and silent. Thirty women courageously share their first-hand experiences of living on the inside and the complicated situations that brought them there." (back cover)

"A complete edition of Words Without Walls will be published by Books Beyond Bars in January 2008. This zine is a sample of the writing and illustrations that were submitted by incarcerated women in Nova Scotia for inclusion in this project."
