Caron spent twenty-four years of his life in prison, producing two books about the experience (the first, 'Go-Boy!', won the Governor General's award, and the second, 'Bingo!' related the bloody riots at Kingston Penitentiary in the early '70's). This is his first novel, and not surprisingly, the central theme is a mixture of revenge, crime and prison. Inscription in an extravagant hand on first end paper reads "1/11/88/To Dave/(squiggle)with respect/(squiggle)smile/(squiggle)Roger Caron (squiggle/scribble." Cream boards, 180 pages. Gently bumped spine ends. Lightly rubbed dust jacket w/mild general wear.
