Peter Baker (British Politician) - Baker As Writer

Baker As Writer

Much have been written about prisons and prisoners, Baker’s book untitled "Time Out of Life" with a foreword from the 7th Earl of Longford, is a powerful and fascinating account of life behind bars, a journey into another world where the idiocracy of the judicial and penal system meet the sexual depravity of the convicted, what should had been the last straw to Baker’s sanity finally able him to emerge as an interesting writer, no shy in using literary devices such as fictional family connections to draw parallels with his own life, Sir John Baker(The House of Commons), Sir Richard Baker(An MP who end up in debt prison, the notebooks anecdote) or Baker Pasha(The soldier figure and Wormwood Scrubs Prison), unlike the Wizard of Oz, the Great and Powerful, Baker was indeed not an ordinary man.
