“An extraordinary achievement . . . a vision of hell so stern it cannot be chuckled or raged aside.”—The New York Times Book Review

A classic of postwar American literature, Last Exit to Brooklyn created shock waves upon its release in 1964 with its raw, vibrant language and startling revelations of New York City’s underbelly.

The prostitutes, drunks, addicts, and johns of Selby’s Brooklyn are fierce and lonely creatures, desperately searching for a moment of transcendence amidst the decay and brutality of the waterfront—though none have any real hope of escape.

Last Exit to Brooklyn offers a disturbing yet hauntingly sensitive portrayal of American life, and nearly fifty years after publication, it stands as a crucial and masterful work of modern fiction.

This ebook features an illustrated biography of Hubert Selby Jr. including rare photos from the author’s estate.

1 internautes sur 1 ont trouvé ce commentaire utile.Des histoires inoubliables mais... âmes sensibles s'abstenir...Par Kinine2a1er livre de Selby que je lis... et bien je ne suis pas déçue !!! ^^J'avais vu le film Requiem for a Dream tiré d'un de ses romans et j'ai retrouvé dans Last Exit to Brooklyn cette atmosphère déliquescente, ces relations humaines écorchées vives et ces êtres à la dérive...Fresque poignante et choquante d'une partie bien réelle de la population humaine, j'y ai découvert un univers, celui d'un quartier de Brooklyn dans les années 60, de l'intérieur.Les personnages de Selby sont hauts en couleurs, forts et quelques part attachants - pour certains.L'écriture sans apostrophes ni virgules est haletante et fait partie intégrante du charme du livre, même si au début cela peut agacer.J'ai en tout cas étoffé mon vocabulaire de gros mots en anglais.... lolL'avant-propos de l'auteur qui parle de sa vie est touchant et à mon avis utile dans la compréhension d'une oeuvre qui interpelle, voire peut choquer.Je vais lire "Requiem for a Dream" maintenant et pourrai alors confirmer mon ressenti mais pour le moment pour moiSelby = Bukowski + Despentes (et c'est un compliment bien sûr !!! ^^)
