A terrifying account of brutality and retribution, searing in its emotional truth, peopled with murderers, sadists, and thugs, but biblical in its passion and scope.....PEOPLE
"In his controversial memoir SLEEPERS, Carcaterra remembers harrowing months in the Wilkinson Home for Boys and the elaborate vengeance he and his friends exacted against the guards. He tells it all in spare, stylish prose...(with) relentless momentum and sheer drama....SLEEPERS is a thriller, to be sure, but it is equally a wistful hymn to another age" --THE WASHINGTON POST BOOK WORLD
