The Enchanted
by Rene Denfeld
Best 500 fils (1.3 Dollars) ever spent on a book.
A haunting story that starts out with a death row prisoner in a maximum security prison. We don't know his name or what he did, but we go through life in prison as he sees it.
This book talks about the horrifying things done in prison and how bad men are created long before that. It is about an investigator who uncovers the horrible truth hidden away in the past and her efforts in trying to save some lives even if it's done by just listening to the prisoner's point of view.
“Inside, the lies you tell become the person you become.” - Rene Denfeld
The unnamed prisoner creates a magical world in prison that allows him to withstand the suffering of being locked up alone, without access to fresh air or human contact. These magical realism elements help him throughout his time in his cage.
It is a dark, haunting and beautifully written book. I have a feeling that some events in this book were based on a true story since the author was a death row investigator herself.
