Product Information
"A remarkable story of a young man's loss of everything he deemed important, and his ultimate discovery that redemption can be taught by society's most dreaded outcasts." -John Grisham "Hilarious, astonishing, and deeply moving." -John Berendt, author of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil The emotional, incredible true story of Neil White, a man who discovers the secret to happiness, leading a fulfilling life, and the importance of fatherhood in the most unlikely of places-the last leper colony in the continental United States. In the words of Pulitzer Prize winner Robert Olen Butler (A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain), White is "a splendid writer," and In the Sanctuary of Outcasts "a book that will endure."

"A wonderfully bizarre and entertaining memoir of jailhouse redemptionby turns hilarious, astonishing, and, when all is said and done, deeply moving.", A moving story of growth and transformation. Among the lost, [White] found humility, beauty, courage—and himself., Leprosy and white collar crime in one dynamic book? Neil White, a writer with a multiple mission, knits two fascinating and unfortunate stories into one powerful narrative that is informative, heart-breaking and highly compelling. White writes with clarity, sensitivity and unforgettable passion., IN THE SANCTUARY OF OUTCASTS was a rare treat for me as I not only learned about this extraordinary place, only whispered about when I was a child, but, even better, was reminded again of what really matters in this life.", "An Impressively Detailed and Unsentimental Memoir...Funny and Straightforward.", "A meaningful look at the trajectory of one man's life and his chance to change its direction. Worth reading and discussing...a particularly intriguing choice for reading groups.", A remarkable story of a young man's loss of everything he deemed important, his imprisonment in a place that would terrify anyone, and his ultimate discovery that redemption can be taught by society's most dreaded outcasts., "White's memoir continues to surprise as it presents a witty, well-rendered narrative of redemption and enlightenment. Readers who enjoy clever, off-beat memoirs will devour this in one sitting.", This memoir represents an atonement persuasively made in an unlikely setting by an accomplished and engaging writer., White wastes no time getting to the hurt, and once he takes you there, you'll be riveted.

A fine memoir and one I highly recommend., At once surreal and grittily naturalistic, funny and poignant, White's tale is fascinating and full of universal resonance. And, not incidentally, White is a splendid writer, adept at both creating a scene and illuminating the human heart. This is a book that will endure., "A moving story of growth and transformation. Among the lost, (White) found humility, beauty, courage--and himself. ", "Vibrant and Readable.", Narrated in an engaging, affable voice with self-deprecating humor, IN THE SANCTUARY OF OUTCASTS is a great American story of personal transformation that leaves White -- and ourselves -- forever changed., "White wastes no time getting to the hurt, and once he takes you there, you'll be riveted.
