This book analyzes the unstable, shifting perceptions of parasites in biological and social settings after 1900. It argues that ¿parasite¿ is a dangerous label for nonhuman animals and minorities, yet many modernist writers reimagine the parasite as the embodiment of dependency in a posthumanist world.

Murder, human-rights abuse, drugs, blackmail, extortion, extreme violence, medical maltreatment and unjustifiable death penalties feature as everyday occurrences in the living hells that are Bangkwang and Klong Prem jails. The author has graphically revealed this shocking reality through the eyes of a long-term inmate from the West.
