Description

Bringing together a range of first-hand testimonies of captives, this personal and arresting collection provides an overview of what life inside is actually like.

Drawing on memoirs of captives - including those imprisoned for stealing money, murder, illegal protest or no reason at all - this book presents the universal experience of being incarcerated and brings to life the humanity of those behind locked doors. Tracing the career of the captive from the moment the door is first locked behind them, to analysis of the oddities of relationships developed in prison and how the deprivation of sex is dealt with, the book then reflects on the cruelties faced while inside, and concludes by looking at the problems faced when the supposedly happy day of release finally arrives.

These insightful accounts help empathise and reflect on the impact of prison practices on inmates.
