Arthur Longworth

4.24/5 (201 ratings)

Read Now Download Now

Zek is the story of Jonny: a man who's broken off and doing time in an eastern Washington state prison. Zek lays bare the brutality of life spent behind bars. It is naked. It is ugly. And it is beautiful.

Arthur Longworth was born in Tacoma, Washington, was state-raised, and entered prison at the age of 21 with a seventh-grade education. He has written for the Marshall Project, Vice News, and Yes Magazine, and is the recipient of three National PEN awards. Completed in 2005, Zek utilizes the literary structure of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich to tell the story of a day in the life of a prisoner in the United States. It is likely Arthur Longworth’s most widely read work, as it has been passed among prisoners and prison guards for over a decade. Zek is available now for the first time on the outside.
