Listen up Fish. Gonna give it up about a road dog named Harry Sue. I ain’t being a snitch or a cheese eater. I’m under direct order. So relax and cool your heels while I give you a little back story on Harry Sue. As you might have figured out from the joint jive, Harry Sue knows a little about prison.

There’s something you’ve gotta realize Fish. “Not all prisons have four concrete walls and a steel bunk. I say prison is a lot like home. It all depends on where your heart is (page vi).”“Language gets out of prison every day, Fish. You may already know some slammer slang from our life on the outs.
