Reading List

Narrative Digest has added to its archives. Check out these:

• "The Wrong Man" by Tamara Jones is part of the Washington Post's ongoing project called "Being a Black Man." It's an unnerving account of a man mistaken for a fugitive.
• "Of Meth and Motherhood" by Nicole Stricker chronicles the life of a woman in a sandwich generation of meth users: Her mother and daughter are addicts, too.
• In "Chasing Shadows" Howard Altman tells a good yarn about exploring the community near D.C.'s "shadow government" -- and finding himself part of an espionage investigation.
• In "Good Intentions" Lane DeGregory engages us once again with story and character while showing the challenges and shortcomings of foster care.
• Xan Rice gives an eyewitness account of the murder of photojournalist Martin Adler in Somalia.
