While looking at the book, I just noticed that Nanon makes up the front cover. Also, The title "No Choirboy", was taken from his book Still Surviving. It is said by Nanon while he say's that he is innocent: "I am no choirboy, and yes, I am guilty of many things, but not for killing anyone." Both the title and front cover show his signifigance towards the author. Other than having faith in god, the thought of innocent people being on Death Row is one of the hardest things that I try to comprehend. It's mind blowing when you think of someone that did not commit the crime, but will die for it.
From reading his past, Nanon seems like he's not the person that killed another man. He had a decent future in football, and was an all around athletic jock. The amount of moving he did probably had alot to do with him assosiating with the wrong crew. I am amazed that his brother was able to graduate from Notre Dame, even though his family was on welfare. Nanon was extremely blessed, and it's amazing how he threw it all away.
