To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For as long as men have locked each other in fortified rooms, artists have conjured with the experience’s romantic potential. Some of the great Russian writers dined out on it for decades. At least one German pastor fashioned a deeply affecting theology out of it. The tall, evil, graceful, bright-eyed, black revolutionary writer George Jackson, sent down to Soledad Prison in 1960 for a minor offence and then later to San Quentin, made it seem positively cool. Plenty of boxers have spent time... inside too. Often their incarcerations — or in Ali’s case, threatened incarceration — have turned out to be pivotal moments in their development. But not if you’re a kid. According to the official literature, the modern use of dedicated cells, or ‘secure units’, in juvenile correctional facilities dates back to the 1950s, when they were instituted in response to the number of absconding children who seemed to be running away from the ‘homes’ nearly as fast as the government could build them.
