Those who inhabit Last Exit to Brooklyn are unforgettable: Harry the strike leader who during his weeks of power discovers something of his true nature Tralala who rejects the only love she is offered and sinks swiftly to the lowest level of prostitution Georgette the 'hip queer' with pathetic aspirations to culture Abraham the 'cool ass' black stud with his girls his 'bigass' Cadillac and his undernourished family the debris of American civilisation for whom the author ultimately makes us feel a profound compassion. Last Exit to Brooklyn was found obscene at the Old Bailey in November 1967 a decision which was reversed by a historic Appeal Court judgement in July 1968. Now this 'honest and terrible book' as Anthony Burgess describes it in his Introduction to this new edition can take its rightful place as one of the major books of our time.
