Good read. White's autobiographical morality tale offers an educational look at the last 100 years of leprosy in this country through his sentencing for a white collar crime to the prison adjacent to a Leper Colony on the Louisiana-Mississippi border. Well written intertwining of a Southern boy's come uppance after he tried too hard to keep up an impression of success along with the story of our society's treatment of lepers.
