Extremely well written, comprehensive and eye-opening look at mass incarceration in America. Alexander provides such a thorough argument, and details the limitations of it so well. It didn't feel repetitive or overargued, and was just the right length for a book like this. The specific examples were poignant and underscored the point of the book well.
