Prison Memoirs of an Anarchist
by Alexander Berkman
Publisher: Mother Earth Publishing Association 1920
ISBN/ASIN: B0037CEUV8
Number of pages: 512
Description:
Prison Memoirs of an Anarchist is above all else the story of the education of one man. We watch Berkman become humanized, tolerant, able to sympathize with the most diverse and antagonistic individuals. No other book discusses so frankly the criminal ways of the closed prison society, its homosexuality or extortion. No other political prisoner even remotely approaches Berkman's sympathy for what most of the revolutionaries refer to contemptuously as common criminals.
