'In prison you see only the moves of the enemy. Prison is the hardest place to fight a battle.' 117 Days is Ruth First's personal account of her detention under the iniquitous '90-day' law of 1963. There was no warrant no charge and no trial - only suspicion. This sparsely written and unique record tells of her experiences of solitary confinement constant interrogation and instantaneous re-arrest on release - lightened by humorous portraits of governors matrons wardresses and interrogators seen as the tools of the police state.
