The book to be discussed is "The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row" by Anthony Ray Hinton. Adults are invited to this monthly book discussion program, which is free and open to everyone!

The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row by Anthony Ray Hinton is available as a print book, an e-book, a downloadable audibook, and as an audiobook CD in The Library's collection.

"In 1985, Anthony Ray Hinton was arrested and charged with two counts of capital murder in Alabama. It was a case of mistaken identity, and Hinton believed that the truth would prove his innocence. Sentenced to death by electrocution, he spent his first three years at Holman State Prison full of despair and anger toward all those who had sent an innocent man to his death. He resolved to find a way to live on Death Row, and for the next twenty-seven years he transformed not only his own spirit, but those of his fellow inmates. After winning his release in 2015, Hinton shows how you can take away a man's freedom, but you can't take away his imagination, humor, or joy."
