Day 22
At last the great electric gates of Belmarsh slide open and we begin our journey east. My temporary moving residence is a compartment four foot by three with a plastic seat. I feel nauseous within ten minutes and am covered in sweat within fifteen.
After twenty-two days incarcerated at HMP Belmarsh, Jeffrey Archer was moved to the Category C HMP Wayland in Norfolk. In this, the second volume of his prison diaries, Archer recounts the sixty-seven days he spent at Wayland, encountering not only the daily degradations of a dangerously over-stretched prison service, but the spirit and courage of his fellow inmates. In this personal and often touching account, Archer gives us a raw, astute examination of the conditions in which he and his fellow inmates lived as he came to terms with his own version of purgatory.
Praise for THE PRISON DIARIES
'Archer paints a bleak but true picture of life in prison . . . it is vivid and disturbing, and will reach a vastly wider audience than any academic treatise or political pamphlet on the subject' Ann Widdecombe, New Statesman
'A chilling insight into the reality of life inside Britain's jails' Daily Mail
