good, personal read

I'm currently reading this. I bought it used at one of my school's libraries for fifty cents or a dollar. It was a good find. The book is basically made up of conversations between Daniel Berrigan and Lee Lockwood, soon after Berrigan's release from prison. They discuss the state of America (relevant), how to keep and demonstrate faith in prison, the deadbeat chaplains, as well as Berrigan's run from the law. It is an interesting read. A similar book is "The Raft is not the Shore," which is conversations between Berrigan and Thich Nhat Hanh. To put this book in context I plan to read more works by the Berrigan brothers, and certainly a biography or two.
