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.

About 2nd Act Books
We've only been in business since February 2019, but have a loyal customer base on the downtown mall in Charlottesville, VA. We are one of four bookstores on the mall, each of us with a different niche. Ours is children's books, while Blue Whale offers rare books, New Dominion sells new books only, and Daedalus sells second-hand books of every description. We are trying to get through this health crisis like every other indie bookstore, so your help is appreciated.
