This text outlines considerations on literary reading experiences in prison from a remission project through reading developed during two years - 2018 and 2019 - with about fifty women interns in the Women's Penitentiary of the Capital (PFC) in the city from Sao Paulo. To contextualize the project, a brief overview of the incarceration policies in Brazil is initially presented; next, the main lines of force of the actions developed in the penitentiary are outlined; and, finally, it reflects on the potential of literary reading in favoring humanization processes and the construction and reconstruction of our personal and collective identities.
