A review by ricefun
River of Fire by Helen Prejean

5.0

I can't say enough good about this book. I saw it as a recommendation - I believe through Goodreads - from a friend. I already love Sister Helen Prejean from her book "Dead Man Walking" and from hearing her in person at both Manchester College (now University) and at a People of Faith Against the Death Penalty conference several years ago. I purchased it as an audiobook and highly recommend it in that format. Hearing her story in her own words and inflections makes it even more personal and immediate. I will look forward to getting a printed copy and re-reading this memoir.
