This evocative and gripping investigative look into romantic relationships between incarcerated people and their spouses on the outside is impossible to put down (The Globe and Mail, Toronto).

What is it like to fall in love with someone in prison?

Over the course of five years, Elizabeth Greenwood followed the ups and downs of five couples who met during incarceration. In Love in the Time of Incarceration, she pulls back the curtain on the lives of the husbands and wives supporting some of the 2.3 million people in prisons around the United States. In the vein of Modern Love, this book shines a light on how these relationships reflect the desire and delusion we all experience in our romantic pairings.

Love in the Time of Incarceration infiltrates spaces many of us have only heard whispers of--from conjugal visits to prison weddings to relationships between the incarcerated themselves. A tour de force of empathetic nonfiction storytelling (Vanessa Grigoriadis, author of Blurred Lines), Love in the Time of Incarceration changes the way you look at the American prison system and perhaps relationships in general.

Previously published as Love Lockdown.
