Reviews
Praise for The Lost Chapters : "Schwartz's razor-sharp observations on life behind bars, the prison system and the women caught in an endless cycle of abuse, addiction and incarceration is captivating and tremendously moving. Her sobering tale is beautifully told." -- Shelf Awareness (starred review) "The author's heartfelt story of self-acceptance and redemption will captivate readers with its honesty, vulnerability, and array of memorable characters." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "What an incredible book. Leslie Schwartz's story would be a page turner on its own, but she's also crafted an elegant tribute to literature and all its transcendent powers. The Lost Chapters is honest, erudite, and infused with just the right proportions of shock, awe, humor and grace. I read it with unceasing admiration and haven't stopped thinking about it since." --Meghan Daum, author of The Unspeakable "A deeply affecting memoir of incarceration. How large a finite piece of time can be, and what infinities are contained within it. Schwartz's relationships in jail were the most moving parts of the book, revealing the deeper tragedy--how our system of incarcerating poor and non-white people has robbed the world of these defiant, beautiful and wild spirits. Schwartz has produced a real life-changer of a book. This is time more than served, it's time redeemed." --Janet Fitch, author of White Oleander and The Revolution of Marina M. "It is not likely that you have read a memoir like this before. Rich in grace, vividly written and it ushers us all into a re-thinking of transformation, shame, and the glorious connective tissue of our shared humanity. The weaving of literature and the wisdom of the trustworthy guides at the margins will alter your heart and restore you to the exquisite mutuality possible for us all." -- Greg Boyle, author of Tattoos on the Heart and Barking to the Choir "Brave, bold, honest, raw -- this book cracks open conversations about addiction and incarceration and, in just 247 pages, makes them infinitely more complex. Aided by the 21 books she read during six weeks in county jail, Leslie Schwartz dives deep beneath the facts of her story to bring back nuggets of wisdom and insight. This isn't just a story of hardship; it's also a story of atonement, transcendence and grace, and of a passionate love for words. Scenes from this book will burrow in and stay with you for a long, long time." -- Hope Edelman, author of Motherless Daughters and The Possibility of Everything "An absorbing, emotionally raw memoir." -- Kirkus, Praise for The Lost Chapters : "Schwartz's razor-sharp observations on life behind bars, the prison system and the women caught in an endless cycle of abuse, addiction and incarceration is captivating and tremendously moving. Her sobering tale is beautifully told." -- Shelf Awareness (starred review) "The author's heartfelt story of self-acceptance and redemption will captivate readers with its honesty, vulnerability, and array of memorable characters." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "[An] intimate and affecting memoir...Schwartz demonstrates her gift as a storyteller as she shows us what it looks and feels like to be behind bars...sublime and even exalting." --Jewish Journal "What an incredible book. Leslie Schwartz's story would be a page turner on its own, but she's also crafted an elegant tribute to literature and all its transcendent powers. The Lost Chapters is honest, erudite, and infused with just the right proportions of shock, awe, humor and grace.

Seller is great but not sure if I received a bad copy or that this is a resealed game but the instruction booklet seems to have been folded / used. Disk looks okay but will see after we start playing it.
