English Prison Books

[Zeeboe]

I recently rewatched the films "A Clockwork Orange" and "Scum", and became intrigued with the idea of studying correctional facilities in England.


Recommendations of fictional stories are welcome, as are nonfictional books about the social science of life inside English penitentiaries. Any decade is fine too.


Thanks!

I only read this book after seeing the movie.

Would probably never realize it existed otherwise.
