Description Last Exit to Brooklyn is a 1964The publication date for the first edition of Last Exit to Brooklyn is often given as 1964, however it appears the novel was originally published in 1957. See Allan Vorda, "Examining the Disease: An Interview with Hubert Selby, Jr." The Literary Review, Vol. 35, Issue 2, Winter 1992, pp. 288-302, at p. 292 ("Portions of Last Exit to Brooklyn were copyrighted as early as 1957...."). 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.DePalma, Anthony. "Hubert Selby Jr. Dies at 75; Wrote 'Last Exit to Brooklyn'", The New York Times, April 27, 2004.Although critics and fellow writers praised the book on its release, Last Exit to Brooklyn caused much controversy because of its frank portrayals of taboo subjects, such as drug use, street violence, gang rape, homosexuality, transvestism and domestic violence. It was the subject of an important obscenity trial in the United Kingdom and was banned in Italy.
