A memoir by convicted felon Henri Charrière that accounts for a fourteen-year period in Charrière's life (October 26, 1931 to October 18, 1945) from when he was wrongly convicted of murder in France and sentenced to a life of hard labor at the Devil's Island penal colony, to when he escaped from prison to Venezuela free of French justice.
