- Used
- Hardcover
Henry Holt and Company, New York: 1986. Hardcover with dustjacket. Very good condition. Books on crime are legion. Cops, defense lawyers, journalists, politicians, and sociologists jave all had their say. But how often do we hear from the criminals themselves? John P. Farrell is a prison psychologist who for years has been jotting down and collecting stories told to him or casually overheard. Here are the voices of armed robbers, rapists, junkies, small-time thieves, and murderers - men as dangerous as they are surprisingly vulnerable. They talk about such things as their feelings before a robbery, the impulse to rape, the paranoia produced by drugs, the fear of being gay, the congames that backfire, or the sudden angers that can lead to fatal violence. ISBN: 0805000526.

Inscribed by the author on the fep. Inscription reads To my good friend, Nick at Christmas 1986 Jack Farrell. Prisoners discuss their psychological problems, jail life, violence, murder, robbery, survival, and self-image.
