- Descriptive Passage - "I remember clearly that snowy February day in 1978 when i was released from the joint. my homies gathered on the sidewalk that morning and watched me leave. As i climbed into the car and my mother drove off, I cast a long, hard look at the prison, tears began streaming uncontrollably down my face." (McCall 223)
Nathan, luckily, served only three years of his twelve year sentence and now that he is free, he begins job hunting and he finds an interest in continuing college.
