Description
"No one knows what really goes on inside a prison unless they are invited through its iron doors. Even then it is difficult to find out much. This book opens up this secret, extraordinary world as never before - at a time when the prison is on a knife-edge." Wormwood Scrubs is Britain's most famous prison and has had its full share of celebrity inmates. From her unique position as Chairman of the Independent Monitoring Board, the prison's watchdog body, Angela Levin opens up this secret world as never before. With keys to all parts of the prison and access to its inmates, officers and governors she witnesses at first hand the lives of the prisoners including the mentally ill, the addicts, foreign nationals and recidivists who cannot cope in the outside world. She has listened to the concerns and fears of the prison officers at a time when violence against them is increasing and the prison is struggling to cope with massive staff cuts. She highlights the faults in the system and recommends some essential reforms. It is an important and revelatory book that will shock, disgust and amaze all who read it.
