About This Item
New York: Ember, 2019. 11th printing. Trade Paperback. Fine. 5x0x8. Eleventh printing. Movie tie-in. A fine copy. 2019 Trade Paperback. 277 pp. The young adult adaptation of the acclaimed, #1 New York Times bestseller Just Mercy--now a major motion picture starring Michael B. Jordan, Jaime Foxx, and Brie Larson and the subject of an HBO documentary feature! In this very personal work--adapted from the original #1 bestseller, which the New York Times calls "as compelling as To Kill a Mockingbird, and in some ways more so"--acclaimed lawyer and social justice advocate Bryan Stevenson offers a glimpse into the lives of the wrongfully imprisoned and his efforts to fight for their freedom. Stevenson's story is one of working to protect basic human rights for the most vulnerable people in American society--the poor, the wrongly convicted, and those whose lives have been marked by discrimination and marginalization. Through this adaptation, young people of today will find themselves called to action and compassion in the pursuit of justice. Proceeds of this book will go to charity to help in Stevenson's important work to benefit the voiceless and the vulnerable as they attempt to navigate the broken U.S. justice system.
Synopsis
Winner of the Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction, Winner of the NAACP Image Award for Nonfiction, Winner of a Books for a Better Life Award Finalist for the Los Angeles Times, Book Prize Finalist for the Kirkus Reviews Prize, and An American Library Association Notable Book. "Every bit as moving as To Kill a Mockingbird, and in some ways more so...a searing indictment of American criminal justice and a stirring testament to the salvation that fighting for the vulnerable sometimes yields."-David Cole, The New York Review of Books
