About This Item
Charles Scribner's Sons, New York 1988 Hardcover, with dust jacket Ours is an ex-library copy in transparent protective covering, with stamps, stickers and barcode. GOOD book in FAIR unclipped dust jacket This one-of-a-kind book was written by Jean Harris, an inmate of the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility. She writes movingly about individual inmates, about the dark fate of women like Loretta, born a male and now female, and Rosie, who has frequent epilectic seizures. At the heart of this book are the children. They are often listless and very sad, with little chance of normal love or attachment to their mothers. This book reveals more about the brutal life of women in prison than we have ever seen before.
