Cast the First Stone
Author: Chester Himes
..sentenced to 20 years in prison...story of prison life...both brutal debasement and the slow growth of maturity and compassion. It is a vivid re-creation of a perverse society with its own rules, taboos, virtues and grotesque vices....a nightmarish picture, illuminatd by flashes of sardonic humor. [back book cover] And still accurate today.
