Sobre este artículo
London: Calder and Boyars, 1966. 1st Edition 2nd Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. First UK edition, second printing. Hardback in dustwrapper. 20.5 × 13.5cm, 234pp. Described by various reviewers as hellish and obscene, Last Exit to Brooklyn tells the stories of New Yorkers who at every turn confront the worst excesses in human nature. Yet there are moments of exquisite tenderness in these troubled lives. Georgette, the transvestite who falls in love with a callous hoodlum; Tralala, the conniving prostitute who plumbs the depths of sexual degradation; and Harry, the strike leader who hides his true desires behind a boorish masculinity, are unforgettable creations. Condition: The book itself is in very good condition, with a little gentle tanning to the page edges. The dustwrapper is in very good condition also (it's usually seen much more creased!). It does have some wear to the spine ends and corners but has not been price-clipped and remains in remarkably good order.
Sinopsis
Last Exit to Brooklyn is a 1964 novel by American author Hubert Selby, Jr. The novel has become a cult classic because of its harsh, uncompromising look at lower class Brooklyn in the 1950s and for its brusque, everyman style of prose. Although critics and fellow writers praised the book on its release, Last Exit to Brooklyn caused much controversy due to its frank portrayals of taboo subjects, such as drug use, street violence, gang rape, homosexuality, transvestism and domestic violence.
