BAD BOYS BEHIND BARS

About the Book

This book provides a rare glimpse into the lives of some adult male prisoners in a high-security prison in England together with the infrastructure behind the prison service for safer custody, well-being, and personal development of the inmates. Their emotions, anguish, and frustration are revealed through their own uncanny narratives written in a simple language. It is an attempt to portray the hidden side of the neglected community of captives of our society today.
