Synopsis for A Prison Diary 2 - Purgatory

On August 9, 2001, 22 days after Jeffrey — now known as Prisoner FF8282 — was sentenced to four years in prison for perjury, he was transferred from a maximum security prison in London to HMP Wayland, a medium security prison in Norfolk.

For the next 67 days, as he waited to be reclassified for an “open,” minimum security prison, he encountered not only the daily degradations of a dangerously overstretched prison system but also the spirit and courage of his fellow inmates.

First published in 2003 – Macmillan.

Jeffrey Archer talks about his Prison Diaries.

Reviews

"A gripping read. It gives an all too clear picture of prison life which sounds truly diabolical and the differing attitudes to someone like the author."

"Loved this book even more than the first diary. "

"An incredible eye opener to what life really is like in prison as opposed to what we see in films and TV."

"Firstly, Jeffrey Archer is a natural storyteller. Start with volume 1 and go through the three, once started I could not move away from these stories."

"This, the second volume of Archer’s prison diaries, makes for fascinating reading. "

"The insight into the idiosyncrasies and foibles (and sometimes, downright sheer idiocy) of the British prison system is very amusing. "

"Pack it in your hand luggage next time you go on holiday, and the flight will pass in a flash!"

"As always, Archer’s writing style flows with a freedom that makes the book hard to put down."
