Absolutely correct.  I was trying to be funny, responding literally to
what was said.

The work is now in the public domain since Brendan Behan died in 1964
and the copyright term is death + 50 years.

Behan was in jail a bunch of times, but mostly for IRA activities.  He
was in Borstal for an attempt to set off a bomb at the Liverpool
docks.  His punishment was pretty mild considering that this was in
1939, when World War II started (he was 16 at the time).
