"Hidden Truth" takes the reader inside a Rhode Island juvenile
prison to explore broader questions of how poor, disenfranchised
young men come to terms with masculinity and identity. Adam D.
Reich, who worked with inmates to produce a newspaper, writes
vividly and memorably about the young men he came to know, and in
the process extends theories of masculinity, crime, and social
reproduction into a provocative new paradigm. Reich suggests that
young men's participation in crime constitutes a game through which
they achieve 'outsider masculinity'. Once in prison these same
youths are forced to reconcile their criminal practices with a new
game and new 'insider masculinity' enforced by guards and
administrators.
