The SHU

I watched Ear Hustle's "The SHU." This was an excellent podcast that showed the atrocity of solitary confinement. It was a very good blog that gave many different perspectives on the issue and also focused on the mental health aspect of those trapped within the SHU. This may seem like a stretch, but I would like to show a relation between this podcast and Sing, Unburied, Sing. In the book we are able to see within the head of the three major characters.  All these characters seem to have some sort of falling mental health. Especially Leonie, we her struggle with drugs and ghosts. In a sense we can say that the characters in the book are in their own "SHU."
