Inside is a book that lives and breathes in its confinement. It places a brief account of the patients of a hospital assessment ward (catering to those in the process of being diagnosed with dementia) in contrast to the inmates of a broad spectrum of prisons. Holding these strands together is the voice of a single poet who doesn¿t hold back from telling it as it is. In sharply observed and pointed language, the whole carries a message for politicians and the public alike.
