- by
David Denborough
This item is free and can be downloaded immediately.
Description:

I also met many lovely men brutalised by generational poverty, racism and/or ill-treatment. What was almost uniformly common was that no-one was talking about any sense of regret they may have felt about the crimes that had led to their incarceration. No-one. This paper asks why.
