Synopsis

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.

I am a pensioner and have been selling books as a hobby since I retired eight years ago. I have been using eBay and Amazon but have found the former too time consuming and the latter's policies not conducive to private sellers.
