"Smart, accomplished, attractive reporter goes on the prison beat. Meets a seductive inmate, a murderer. Falls in love. Marries him and helps get him out of jail. Loses friends, battles age-old prejudice and the dark politics of the prison system. There are so many ways a memoir like this could have gone wrong in the telling, and Friedman avoids every pitfall. Much more than that (though that alone is amazing enough): with an open heart, a clear mind, and a superbly honed, quietly direct writing style, she takes you on a journey that at the outset you can’t imagine will become so real, so familiar, so under your skin. Friedman’s naturalistic honesty and instinct for detail dissolve every preconceived notion you will bring to this book. Desperado’s Wife enlarges the house of human feeling and stokes a fine anger at everything that damages it and seals it off. ~ Thomas Frick, author of The Iron Boys
