Bog beskrivelse

A history of Reading''s iconic gaol: architectural landmark, cultural emblem and symbol for a community determined to cherish the town''s heritage. Layers of history and art are carefully peeled back as Peter Stoneley reveals its past as architectural showcase for Sir George Gilbert Scott''s decorative (and expensive!) style, location for experiments in prison reform, training ground for the leaders of the Irish Independence movement and, of course, the inspiration for Oscar Wilde''s famous Ballad of Reading Gaol.

Bringing the narrative right up to the present day with the discussions over its future use, the impact of the ArtAngel exhibition and Banksy''s graffiti, this book is a timely platform for the building to tell us its story.
