Tasos Theofilou gives testimony on the brutality of prison life, and its centrality in contemporary capitalism, through a blur of memoir, social commentary, free verse, and a glossary of the idiom used by inmates in Greek prisons. A political prisoner in Greece from 2012 to 2017, Theofilou's work centers on exposing the conditions of widespread exploitation and social struggle that persist in Greece as a result of the debt crisis--in prisons as well as in mainstream society.","brand":"Common Notions","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47999544361111,"sku":"9781942173120","price":720.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781942173120.webp?v=1783600982","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/writings-from-a-greek-prison-32-steps-or-correspondence-from-the-house-of-the-dead-9781942173120","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
