JACK HENRY ABBOTT became a folk hero in New York intellectual circles when his letters from prison were published as In the Belly of the Beast.
Before long this convicted murderer was released on parole and is now in jail again charged with the murder of a young waiter. Denis Donoghue , Henry James Professor of Letters at New York University, reflects on this infatuation with danger and violence, and on its cultural implications.
