In this sequel to his first volume of autobiography ("Pride and
Perjury"), Aitken starts his story as he is taken down from the
courtroom and incarcerated at Her Majesty's Pleasure. He writes
frankly of subsequent events. Visited by the ever-optimistic Lord
Longford, Aitken emerged from the jaws of despair a chastened man.
How this Old Etonian former Cabinet Minister on Mrs. Thatcher's
inner circle managed to establish new relationships and lasting
friendships with fellow prisoners is fascinating - so too is this
account of how religious belief transformed his life and began to
influence the life of others. Emerging from Bellmarsh Prison, with
nothing but a black plastic sack of clothes, Aitken recounts how he
was accepted at Wycliffe Hall Oxford to read theology and how this
reconditioned his mind as well as his soul. Aitken has lost none of
his charm, fluency and determination. But now these are used for
greater purposes. He has found a new life and meaning to it. The
authenticity of this new life is something which drives him on, and
which readers of this entertaining new book will be able to judge
for themselves.
