Romantic Outlaws, Beloved Prisons: The Unconscious Meanings of Crime and Punishment
Martha Grace Duncan
A book about paradoxes and mingled yarns - about the bright sides of dark events, the silver linings of sable clouds. It portrays upright citizens who harbor a strange liking for criminal deeds, and criminals who conceive of prison in positive terms: as a nurturing mother, an academy, a matrix of spiritual rebirth, or a refuge from life's trivia.
