"Feige glories in feeling like a 'righteous outlaw'—and thank God. As he rightly points out, 'The narcissistic pleasure of giving doesn't invalidate the gift.' And someone's got to give it."

"David Feige has given us a book for the ages. With narrative verve and unfailing humor, he takes us on a tour of a terribly broken system. Feige's tales from the front are as heartbreaking as they are enraging. Yet his compassion, combined with the courage of those he defends, make the journey an uplifting one. No one who reads this book will ever see the 'justice system' the same way again."
Samantha Power, Pulitzer Prize-Winning Author of A Problem From Hell |

"Indefensible is completely riveting. Funny and fierce and harrowing and humane, it is a glimpse into a system whose inequity, caprice, and downright injustice will open the eyes....Feige writes with a compassion and eloquence like he was born to the craft, and more than that: he is a hero." |

|
"Indefensible is a tour de force! it offers and exploration of a little-known culture of our criminal justice system and is unapologetic in telling it like it is. This book leaves no subject untouched in canvassing a young public defender's work in the gritty criminal courts of New York. You won't be able to put it down."
Charles J. Ogletree Jr., Harvard Law School, Author of All Deliberate Speed |

"A must-read for anyone who cares about American justice. The stakes are high and David Feige brilliantly dissects a day in his life as a defense attorney, battling to do right by his client and the Constitution. Feige not only gives us a blow-by-blow account of how criminal justice actually works, but guides us toward a more sensible and just system in the future. What results is a uniquely honest and passionate account of life and law from a dedicated lawyer who holds nothing back."
Jami Floyd, Host of Court TV's The Best Defense |
