A young Vietnam Veteran living in Orlando, Florida moves to a small town in the southern part of the state where he becomes employed as a prison guard at a state prison that houses over one thousand violent inmates. He soon discovers he's taken a job where all the prison guards are redneck, country boys who all grew up in the same small area-and they don't like outsiders. It's not long before his personal life becomes complicated as he deals with the drama, stress, and violence he encounters while working in the prison environment. Carter's career as a correctional officer takes one turn after another while he learns the routines, uncovers the deceptions, and takes on the challenges of everyday prison life. He quickly discovers that inmates lie, cheat, steal, gamble, and commit assault and rape-all daily occurrences faced by the correctional staff. And Carter learns to deal with his fellow employees as well-tough men, good ol' Southern boys, who don't necessarily welcome his presence. He must prove himself to both the inmate population and the other correctional officers before he'll earn their respect and be taken seriously. The job changes him as it slowly eats away at him every day that he steps onto the prison compound. It's not long before he can't leave the job at the prison and he becomes numb, suspicious, untrusting, critical, pretentious, aggressive, bossy, and callous to people in general in order to survive working as a prison guard in this whole other world. He subconsciously evolves into a tough country boy who learns to master the supervising techniques and skills required to handle and discipline the hardcore, violent inmates as well as his fellow prison guards... ...who at times can also be treacherous. As his life at the prison rolls on through the years, Carter doesn't realize the toll his work is taking on his home life. With another child in the family-a son-and a daughter he adores, Carter is in danger of losing it all because he can't seem to leave his work at the prison at day's end. Should he leave and take the job that's offered to him with the sheriff's department? Should he turn down his superior officer at the prison, who is pushing him to apply for a sergeant's position? Carter knows himself well enough to realize he's happiest just doing his daily duties as a correctional officer. Through all the bizarre situations the prison environment and inmates throw at him, every aspect of his life revolves around his personal life and loved ones. Suicide, murder, and chaos are always right around the corner, while being at home is always the best therapy in his life with his little prince and princess. But no one can stay in the same place forever, and soon Carter finds this cold, hard truth applies to both his personal and his professional lives.

ECPA 2014 Christian Book Award Winner (Non-Fiction)! Fifty years after his death, C. S. Lewis continues to inspire and fascinate millions. His legacy remains varied and vast. He was a towering intellectual figure, a popular fiction author who inspired a global movie franchise around the world of Narnia, and an atheist-turned-Christian thinker. In C.S. Lewis—A Life, Alister McGrath, prolific author and respected professor at King’s College of London, paints a definitive portrait of the life of C. S. Lewis. After thoroughly examining recently published Lewis correspondence, Alister challenges some of the previously held beliefs about the exact timing of Lewis’s shift from atheism to theism and then to Christianity. He paints a portrait of an eccentric thinker who became an inspiring, though reluctant, prophet for our times. You won’t want to miss this fascinating portrait of a creative genius who inspired generations.

The foundational text for the acclaimed New York Times and international best seller Reading Lolita in Tehran The ruler of a totalitarian state seeks validation from a former schoolmate, now the nation's foremost thinker, in order to access a cultural cache alien to his regime. A literary critic provides commentary on an unfinished poem that both foretells the poet's death and announces the critic's secret identity as the king of a lost country. The greatest of Vladimir Nabokov's enchanters--Humbert--is lost within the antithesis of a fairy story, in which Lolita does not hold the key to his past but rather imprisons him within the knowledge of his distance from that past. In this precursor to her international best seller Reading Lolita in Tehran, Azar Nafisi deftly explores the worlds apparently lost to Nabokov's characters, their portals of access to those worlds, and how other worlds hold a mirror to Nabokov's experiences of physical, linguistic, and recollective exile. Written before Nafisi left the Islamic Republic of Iran, and now published in English for the first time and with a new introduction by the author, this book evokes the reader's quintessential journey of discovery and reveals what caused Nabokov to distinctively shape and reshape that journey for the author.
