Nineteen years ago, Erwin James was sentenced to life imprisonment. Over the past five years, he has written powerfully about prison life for the Guardian. The Home Stretch picks up where the enormously popular A Life Inside left off.

The Home Stretch asks how someone who has been imprisoned for so long deals with a life beyond the prison gates.
