This book contains the correspondence between Pip Wilson,
who for years worked on the streets of the East End of London,
and Bobby Hossain,
as he struggled to deal with his feelings whilst inside prison.
The diary of communication that flows between them is real
and frank.
It relates the pain, the days of darkness and
the gradual internal strength that Bobby discovered
with Pip's help.

- This 1or 2 sitting read is a rich dialoguebetween two fascinating men,captured through old-fashioned letter writing,that reveals the harsh nature of many people's livesin contemporary Britain.Bobby is a spirited, creative, entrepreneurial and surprisingly reflective man whose litany of very bad deeds finally catches up with him,until he finds himself in prison for the first time.Pip - a modern-day youth worker/saint,encourages Bobby to write everything he's thinking and feeling down, and as the letters progress,coaxes more and more soul-searching out of Bobby.Remarkably Bobby and Pip agree to publish the correspondence and now the reader can experience the deep dialogue about broken dangerous lives,peppered with courage, hope and belief.Its gutsy stuff, and its worth it.
