Livre
Paperback. Etat : Good. This volume seeks to expose the hollowness of condemnation divorced from understanding in relation to the Bulger murder trial. People have almost become desensitized to random murder. It is often explained away by madness, sexual fantasy or rejection. One murder in recent times reduced every person to silence: the abduction and beating to death of a helpless infant by two ten-year-old boys. How and why did two innocent boys kill another? Is childhood innocence a myth? And what punishment could fit such a crime, assuming that children are fit to stand trial for murder? Blake Morrison went to the trial in Preston, and discovered a sad ritual of condemnation with two bewildered children at the centre. He looked for possible explanations in the boys' families, their dreary environment, their fantasies, their exposure to violent films. He evokes the worst feats of parents through candid and raw memories of his relations with his own children, and delves into his own childhood to reveal the worst thing he has ever done, to show how easy it is to go along with cruelty. Blake Morrison is the author of two collections of poetry, "Dark Glasses" and "The Ballad of the Yorkshire Ripper", and is co-editor of "The Penguin Book of Contemporary British Poetry". His memoir, "And When Did You Last See Your Father?" won the Waterstone's/Esquire Award for non-fiction and the J.R. Ackerley Prize for Autobiography in 1993. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Livre Edition originale
Hardcover / Hardback. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. First edition. Hardback. We've grown almost desensitised to horror. We can even explain the causes of random murder to ourselves: madness, sexual fantasy, rejection. But one event 20yrs ago reduced every person to silence: the beating to death of the infant James Bulger by two 10yr old boys. All over the world the images on the murky video film of the two children leading the toddler by his hand looped uselessly in peoples' minds. How and why did two innocent boys kill another? Is childhood innocence a myth? And what punishment could fit such a crime - assuming that children are fit to stand trial for murder? At the trial in Preston, the author discovered a sad ritual of condemnation with two bewildered children at its centre. For a month, policemen and witnesses told the How of it. The truth of the Why lay elsewhere. The author went to Liverpool, and sought explanations in the boys' families, and looked at the violence that saturated the minds of modern children. He delved deep into his relations with his own kids, and from his own childhood remembered how easy it was to go along with cruelty. He gives a devastating portrait of the majesty and impotence of the law when faced with a tragedy that wrecked three families' lives. A book that exposes the hollowness of condemnation divorced from understanding. 245pp. 8vo. h/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. With loosely inserted newspaper cutting relating to Denise Bulger's attack on the book's contents. F. in F. dw.
