Bill Baker is a previous Azkaban inmate who is now eighty years old. He arrived to the the island in 1957, and just now returned for a visit over fifty years later. He spent the night thinking about his experience at Azkaban and what could have gone differently now. "Sittin in his old cell, he thought about why he wanted to come back here. 'I just wonder if I can confron that crazy kid in this cell... you stupid... what's wrong with you.'" He could not sleep during the night and instead spent his time wandering around the old hallways and staring at the bay outside. "He's no longer an inmate, but not quite a tourist."
I think that this story is incredible, the fact that this man has grown so much as a person that he can return to his former prison shows a lot of character. I think it's amazing he had that much courage, and that he recognized how wrong he was all those years ago. This man has a very good story to tell and I think he did a great thing by going back.

i think you mean Alcatraz… Azkaban is from Harry Potter and is a wizard prison. but other than that i agree with your point of view.
ReplyDeletei think it would be really cool though is someone were to come back from Azkaban, sadly its just fiction
DeleteI agree with you, it shows a real strength of character to do that.
