Having been a regular visitor to Wakefield Prison over the years, I have a slight (but only slight!) familiarity with a “life behind bars”, and the consequent disproportionate importance of the words “Freedom is everything” (a welcome and much more encouraging than the other not dissimilar phrase in an even more unfortunate place “Arbeit macht frei”).

You really brought out the reality behind this alien world and I must congratulate you on providing yet another fascinating glimpse into a part of Venice of which even those of us lucky enough to be familiar with the City of your dreams would never have been aware.

Thank you again,

John
