THE SEARCH FOR ENLIGHTENMENT. "Maybe I was born mean, violent, screaming and striking all near when I came from my Mother's womb. And, yes, I was a disturbed child, disturbed by...

No Medication Available: The trials and tribulations of a loveable rogue
ISBN: 9781503064720 / Angielski / Miękka / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the account of one man's adventure from childhood to middle age.

The story unfolds much as it happened and if adventure puts the spice in life then Bryan's life has been infused with ample seasoning. From his humble beginnings in an English suburban terrace, through children's homes and prison cells, he crashed forward; through the...

The delusion comes from spending some 16 years, on and off, behind bars, during a criminal career that spanned over four decades. Since turning my back on crime, The Guardian newspaper has seen fit to employ me as their prisons correspondent, a post I have held for the last nine years so, although I last left prison some 12 years ago, prison has never really left me. But of course, nobody knows everything about anything. And I am frequently surprised-amazed even-at a prison story/issue that lands on...

Emblazoned across the cover of "Time" magazine on May 16, 1977, was the title, "The Mafia: Big, Bad and Booming." For most readers, this simply heralded a dramatic expose on the intriguing world of organized crime; but for Joseph "Joe" Bonpensiero, this signaled a family story weighed down with way too much personal baggage. As the nephew, or "niputi," of the infamous Frank Bompensiero, Joe grew up under the shadow of the Mafia. And even though Joe's father, Sammy, had steered clear of his brother Frank's underhand dealings and violent inclinations, the whole family was considered...
