SynopsisOZ: Behind These Walls is the secret journal of Augustus Hill, the show's wheel-chair bound main character. He's been keeping a diary about Oz for the past 5 years and wrote a letter requesting that if he should die, the book be published to show the world what goes on behind the walls of Emerald City. In his book, Augustus postulates on all aspects of Oz life - the rapes, lies, sex, stabbings, drugs, lost time, love and murder. With each entry, he highlights major events that have happened and offers his particular take on it. As the publisher of his book, we've taken Augustus' journal and added our own editorial sidebars -- some on OZ itself, with R.I.P pages and Poet's poetry -- others on various prisons and prison policies from around the United States, to give the reader a more indepth view of real prison life. The book also includes an Epilogue by Tom Fontana, creator of OZ, and an Episode Guide of the last 5 seasons of this groundbreaking show. Last but not least, the story behind the book is written into every new episode of the final season of OZ, making it not only a great fan keepsake, but a publishing event.

  • Good companion to the show.

    This book doesn't give much more info on the events of the show if you are already a fan. What it does is give is the view of these events from Augustis Hill's standpoint. Having said that, those views don't differ too much than what the typical OZ fan sees as well. If you are a huge OZ fan, than this book is a great companion piece and souvenir for the rabid OZ fan. Note the book does not include any info from the final season (as the Hill character passed away in the second to last season).

  • The series was my favourite, the addition of the journal rocks

    I am adding OZ to our collection. It is a compellingly series. I worked as a correctional officer for twelve years. Something entertaining about see the walls from a very different viewpoint. I will eventually have the whole series in our collection. Worth checking out for sure.
