Book Description

Death Row Breakout Stories brings together seven previously unseen short stories that draw fully on Edward Bunker’s incomparable experience of the U.S. prison system.

The title story Death Row Breakout details the routine of being on Death Row, before exploding into action when the plans for a breakout kick in. In L.A. Justice, a black man falls foul of the law after a minor traffic incident and once inside the prison system he finds it a labyrinth impossible to escape from… As James Ellroy says `by an ex-criminal, from the unregenerately criminal viewpoint…’

From the Back Cover

After Edward Bunker died in 2005 a significant discovery was made – among his papers were a novel and several stories, all unpublished. Now, following the novel ‘Stark’ in 2008, comes ‘Death Row Breakout’ with its final, hard edged serving of Bunker legends from prison life. The title story ‘Death Row Breakout’ details the routine of being on Death Row, before exploding into action when the plans for a breakout kick in. Written with trademark Bunker clarity and vigour, these seven stories capture the pain, mores and tragic futility of the incarceration experience.
