Whats a good book to send to a prison inmate?

Question:Dont tell me the bible because lost people wont understand how to read it.If you are gona recommend a biblical book please let it be something that can get thru a ignorant criminal mind.Other books like something to do with how to become better ect..Something that will benifit a prisoners mind

Answers:
Fyodor Dostoyevsky's "Crime and Punishment" is a book anyone in jail will have trouble putting down. it is a rather moral, and inward exercise of the social criteria of guilt and innocence. The story deals with the sublime distinction between guilt of a crime and the willing acceptance that a crime was commited.(xx, introduction)
There are several good translations, some even have insightful commentaries available.
P.S.
I was in jail when I read it. It rocked my conscience

Thank God, and you for believing that those who make terrible mistakes deserve a second chance.

Prisoners may be much smarter than you think.

Anyway, try "Count of Monte Cristo"
the first book most people would recommend would most likely be the bible.if he or she can,t read too good, something in the educational field might do it since this person has a lot of time to spare.at his or her educational level...most prisons have thier own library.if the prisoner is in such a place, you should tell him or her to visit it..it may be a rewarding experience
