Rating:
Summary: a real life frankenstein created by the prison system.
Review: Carl Panzam, a Minnesota farm boy grew up in incredible poverty on a worn out dirt farm near the town of Warren. he had no toys except for a shovel and hoe, never had a birthday, subject to vicious beatings at the hands of family members. he was sent to the 'reform' school, a type of institution little better that a prison where spendingtax money on stone construction and heating systems and cafeteria meals were immensely, more important that helping troubled boys so that they can become usefull honest citizens. There Panzram, was subjected to vicious beatings administered by the local cracker staff because he was 'recalcitrant' in his english studies.He was probably, deslexic and had a great deal of difficulty with his studies. it was a thoroughly mean horrible place to grow up in. his experiences in this place, (just being in a place like this would stygmatise a person for life) and the tortures imposed on him in his adult life spent mostly in prison, he was probably molested by a reform achool staff member, help turn him into an utter unredeemable monster. he was remarkably, frank about his evil selfand his unredeemableness and about his sole goal in life to murder as many as possible, men, women, and even children. a classic example of how the state and its minions, are supposed to reform criminals into usefull citizensbut, in fact turn them into frankensteins.A must for people seriously interestedin criminalogy and a very unusual book.
