A Few Kind Words and a Loaded Gun by Noel 'razor' Smith
A Few Kind Words and a Loaded Gun is the autobiography of convicted criminal Noel "Razor" Smith. An extraordinarily vivid account of how a tearaway kid from South London became a career criminal, it is both a searing indictment of a system that determinedly brutalized young offenders and a frank, unsentimental acknowledgement of the thrills of the criminal life. Shocking, fascinating and frightening by turns, it also reveals Razor Smith to be a remarkably talented writer.
Noel 'Razor' Smith was born of Irish parents in London in 1960. He has spent the greater portion of his adult life in prison, and is currently serving a life sentence for armed robbery. He has won a number of Koestler awards, and contributed articles to the Independent, the Guardian, the New Statesman and the New Law Journal.
