Sinopsis

The true story of an extraordinary friendshipáIn the summer of 1992, Christopher Morgan, a farmer, joined a penfriend scheme whose aim was to give prisoners a window on the world. He was allocated Tom Shannon, a lifer, inside for murder. Through their correspondence, a strong and honest friendship developed between the two men whose lives were poles apart.ááNever intended for publication, the authenticity of these letters isáall the moreápowerful and convincing. Whilstáportraying the grim reality of prison life in Britain in the 1990s, they also reassure us that friendship and respect can prevail in the most unlikely circumstances.ááRoyalties from the publication of the Invisible Crying Tree helped to found Shannon Trust, a national charity unlocking the power of reading for people in prison.&lsquo,A small gem of a book.&rsquo, Marie Claireá&lsquo,A remarkable insight into prison conditions and human nature&hellip,The murderer, defying a poor education&hellip,finds an eloquent voice which rings with poetry, humour and a moral certitude.&rsquo, Sunday Timesá&lsquo,A truly revealing insight into the mind and existence of a &ldquo,lifer&rdquo,. A sensitive and telling dialogue between an understanding outsider and a man condemned to life inside prison.&rsquo, Jon Snowá
