This book is a moving account of the reactions of communists in prison cells against oppression and the government. Trade unionists who were arrested in many protests that took place at a time when the communist movement was banned in independent India were imprisoned. This book tells the story of the riots that took place in the Vellore prison against the authorities and the severe attacks that took place inside the prison cells, and it is a rare record of the emotional upheavals that continued through hunger strikes and demonstrations.
