Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover / Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition. Hardback. A ground-breaking book about what life is really like behind bars. In 1985, the poet Ken Smith was invited to spend 2yrs. as Writer-in-Residence at Wormwood Scrubs prison. His brief was to encourage prisoners to express their condition and their feelings in words. Smith developed a close relationship with several of the prisoners, one of whom 'Dave Wait', emerged as a very talented writer. One section of the book - 'Living in My Head' - is by him. For the most part, the book describes, in a painfully honest and unsentimental way, the life of prisoners from those on remand to those serving life sentences. Includes Jeremy Bamber and Paul Hill. With Glossary. 237pp. 8vo. h/back. With signs of b/plate removal from fpd o/w Vg+ in Vg+ dw. Seller Inventory # 19459
