Résumé
That Bird Has My Wings is the astounding memoir of death row inmate Jarvis Masters and a testament to the tenacity of the human spirit and the talent of a fine writer. Offering scenes from his life that are at times poignant, revelatory, frightening, soul-stirring, painful, funny, and uplifting, That Bird Has My Wings tells the story of the author's childhood with parents addicted to heroin, an abusive foster family, a life of crime and imprisonment, and the eventual embracing of Buddhism.
How does a man sentenced to die for a crime he insists he didn't commit find peace, meaning, and a path to redemption? Overcoming Adversity: From a childhood of neglect with heroin-addicted parents to the brutalities of the foster care system, this is a raw look at a life lived against the odds. Wrongful Conviction: Sentenced to death for murder, Masters's fight for his life becomes a profound journey into his own past and the justice system that failed him.
A Path to Redemption: Discover how the teachings of Buddhism, with guidance from luminaries like Pema Chödrön, helped him find a clear conscience and inner freedom on death row. Inspirational True Story: Told with unflinching honesty and a complete lack of sentimentality, this is an unforgettable account of the resilience of the human spirit.
