Her Side Of The Sun, a new book by Tim Flaherty (Guatemala 1974-76), has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.
Her Side of the Sun chronicles the tales of different women in a women’s prison located in Framingham, Massachusetts, and the crimes that led them there. The events portrayed within are based on real accounts of incarcerated women and their crimes. Author Tim Flaherty portrays these events in a narrative setting as a message on how drugs and alcohol can lead a woman down this treacherous path. Writing an accurate and honest story, Flaherty transports us into the lives of these women and the devastating impact their actions have not only to themselves but to their families.

My ballot arrived by mail at three in the afternoon. It was completed and in the county drop box before five. I ain’t foolin’ around. It’s time to punish the once Grand Old Party for permitting itself to be run by cheats, liars and traitors. We’ve had other parties disappear. Time to wave goodbye.
