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.
