When a single mother takes a job teaching at a newly privatized \"super jail\" in a small French-Canadian community outside Toronto, she enters a world shaped less by justice than by political agendas and corporate bottom lines. Under the rule of an ultra-conservative provincial government, the prison is run by an American corporation determined to cut costs and maximize profit. Staff is stretched thin, safeguards are replaced with surveillance tech, and rehabilitation takes a back seat to control. Told through six interwoven narratives anchored by the teacher's experience, \u003ci\u003eInside Passages\u003c\/i\u003e pulls back the curtain on the hidden workings of a prison system in crisis. It is a powerful exploration of those who live and work inside its walls-guards, inmates, and outsiders alike-and how they are all diminished by a system built not to heal, but to dehumanize.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Heather Paul\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1989689965\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781989689967\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Now or Never Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 261\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.01h x 5.35w x 0.67d","brand":"Heather Paul","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442945274111,"sku":"9781989689967","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b824c3e0-e126-4fca-8766-5bf4793a6c59.jpg?v=1777200800","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/inside-passages-heather-paul-9781989689967","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
