Insanity: My Mad Life

Insanity: My Mad Life

by Charles Bronson (Author), Charles Bronson (Author), Stephen Richards (Author)

Synopsis

Charles Bronson is the most feared and the most notorious convict in the prison system. Renowned for serial hostage taking and his rooftop sieges, he is a legend in his own lifetime. Yet behind the crime and the craziness, there is a great deal more to Charlie. He is a man of great warmth and humour; a man of great artistic talent who exhibits his drawings around the country; and a man with an overpowering urge not to let the system get him down. Insanity is a look into the mind of a true individual - a wild, inspired, single-minded, fascinating man, oppressed not only by the workings of his singular mind, but also by the system that confines him.

Author Bio
Owing to Charlie Bronson's somewhat confined conditions (ie. in a cage like Hannibal Lecter), it is difficult for him to get out and promote his book as he would want to. It doesn't seem to have harmed Bronson, however, which has sold well over 100,000 copies, perhaps because every time Charlie does something a bit nutty it ends up in every national newspaper... Charlie once kidnapped three Iraqis and threatened to eat them. He is now threatening to eat any bookseller who orders a less-than-substantial quantity of his new book. You have been warned...
