Criminals Read Books


Mitchell Rouse was arrested for taking drugs. A judge found him guilty of the crime, but
surprisingly, Rouse didn’t receive a prison sentence. The judge sent him to read instead.
Rouse participated in a special programme called Changing Lives Through Literature. This
programme helps criminals change their lives through reading books.
Participants in the programme read books and meet regularly in groups to talk about them.
For criminals, the reading is not just a fun hobby. It’s a kind of therapy. It teaches them
important skills and helps them learn about themselves and others. “It changed the way I
look at life,” says Rouse.
The books help the criminals because they are connected to their lives. For example, some
groups read Of Mice and Men, about two poor young men looking for jobs. Many of the
criminals come from poor families too, so they can understand the characters. In the group
meetings, these criminals share their feelings about being poor. They also look at the
characters’ mistakes and talk about how they can do things differently in their lives. The
group leaders, mostly teachers, make sure the criminals feel comfortable talking about their
ideas. This gives the criminals self-confidence. “In the group … your opinion is just as valid
as anyone else’s,” says Rouse.
Robert Waxler, an English teacher, started Changing Lives Through Literature in 1991 with
his friend, Judge Robert Kane. Their first reading group was for eight criminals. Since then,
the programme has grown and become very successful. In the US state of Texas, for
example, about 600 participants have completed the programme and only 6% of them have
returned to crime. When criminals leave prison, about 60% of them continue to commit
crime.
Today, Rouse doesn’t take drugs and he has got a good job. He is even thinking about studying
philosophy at university. For him, the reading group was a “miracle”. Literature, it seems, can
change lives.
