Guzman has started to read the Spanish-translation of Rick Warren's "The Purpose Driven Life: What on Earth Am I Here for?", along with other novels.
 
He no longer has a television, but gets free reading material.
 
Guzman has also read the classic Don Quijote since being brought back to Altiplano prison west of Mexico City, an official told the Associated Press.
 
Andrew Chesnut, professor of Religious Studies at Virginia Commonwealth University and a specialist in Latin American religion, recently tweeted saying Guzman's mother is Pentecostal, reports The Christian Post.
 
Along with reaching for the faith-based book it is reported that Guzman has lost weight and lowered his blood pressure.
 
Officials added that two guards are watching his cell every minute of the day.
 
His cell remains under constant observation and has no blind spots, unlike the cell Guzman tunneled out of with the help of his associates.
 
The floors of the prison's top-security cells have since been reinforced with a 16-inch bed of concrete with a double layer of rebar.
 
Guzman met with American actor Sean Penn and Mexican actress Kate del Castillo in October 2015, purportedly to discuss a project to document his life in a movie.
 
Conversations through text messages with del Castillo ultimately led to his recapture.
