Representaion In Favor Of Books The Damage Done: Twelve Years of Hell in a Bangkok Prison

4,000 Days was offered to me as an excellent way to get myself out of a reading slump. I'd burned myself out on 400 page novels with brilliant writing and needed something a bit less involving. While I'm not entirely happy with the book, the recommendation was spot on and I found myself finishing it in one sitting.

Telling the story of Warren Fellows, 4,000 Days is more-or-less exactly what the cover promises. Told in a simple, straight-forward style, it is a loose and hurried account of a man's experiences being ruined in the Bangkok prison system. While it is certainly gruesome from cover to cover, it is not a collection of unbelievably horrible things. It is instead a collection of perfectly credible horrible things, and although the author never forces details down your throat, he manages to get the point across of just how much time passed before he was finished coping with the abuse piled on him daily.

All in all, it's a bit more nihilistic than I'd hoped, and the gloom and doom does not make for especially light reading, but it managed to keep me gripped the whole way through nonetheless. I'm not about to start recommending it left and right, but there are much worse ways to spend a cold winter's afternoon.

Write-Up Appertaining To Books The Damage Done: Twelve Years of Hell in a Bangkok Prison
This book was a very descriptive insight to some of the worst prisons in Thailand and I imagine anywhere in this world. The sheer disregard for human suffering and the extent of the brutality is unbelievable. The mind boggles how these things are allowed to happen. It was at times a grisly and difficult read but very interesting to someone like me who has no prior in depth knowledge on this topic.

A good book to get information from Bang Kwang Prison, but as reading something loose.

A quick read but not near as good as I expected it to be according to the ratings.Maybe I am spoiled but I have read 2 books about this same prison by 2 different Dutch guys.One of those books was so well written and told us the horrible experience he had to go through. But he did that in a much better way than Warren Fellows. This book felt rushed, written from the sideline.I do understand why this book got high ratings. I think that has lot to do with all the horrible and shocking things he

Read in one day. Fellows spent 11 1/2 years in the Thailand prison system from 1978 until late 1989 for drug trafficking. He admits his guilt. It's a story of unrelenting horror- torture, heat, bugs, rats, filth, disease, privation and starvation and he has survived it all. Anyone who reads this account and feels justice was done isn't human.

One star for some of the elements of Thai culture that I found interesting. As for the rest....granted, I've been a corrections officer for a while now, so I'm probably just biased, but I just didn't feel sorry for him. It wasn't just that he was trying to enrich himself by running drugs and feeding off of the addictions of drug addicts, although that in itself isn't very endearing, but his behavior prior to his imprisonment just showed Warren Fellows to be loathsome and excremental, as when he

A Review of 4000 Days by Warren Fellows Imagine a place where anyone can do anything and anything can happen. People around you would be dyeing, but know one would do anything to help them they would just watch. A place where you would be starving for weeks, even sometimes for months. This is about a man named Warren Fellows who was a drug dealer and went to different places like India and Asia to get drugs and deliver them to people who wanted them. Everything went smoothly for him till one

Of all the drug smuggling, banged - up - abroad type books I've read (and there's been a lot) this is one of the best. Very well written.
