In this moving and compassionate book, the author tells the true stories of 10 children who were imprisoned for committing crimes of violence. The author, a psychoanalyst, describes these young people, examining the conditions in which their crimes occurred, the treatment they received in prison, and their treatment by society after leaving prison. She makes no attempt to justify the crimes or to propose reforms of the system, but to see the underlying conditions as important factors in the resulting homicides.
