Conclusion IndexReviewsIn Life Beyond Murder, Dan Gabriel Rusu accompanies a group of convicted murderers as they attempt to rebuild their lives after leaving prison. Searching for new tools that might aid them in the task of reconstruction, they wrestle with guilt and frustration, try to overcome the practical impediments that litter the path towards social reintegration, and look back thoughtfully at everything they’ve left behind. Ambitious, intelligent and full of honesty and pathos, this is an outstanding contribution that deserves to be widely read.
