    A first edition, first printing published by Marion Boyars in 1979. A near fine book in like unclipped wrapper which is slightly faded to the spine. Rare A rollercoaster ride through the nightmares of addiction. It's like a dark comedy, but without the laughs. A group of characters spiralling into the abyss of drug addiction, dreaming of better lives while reality smacks them like a wet flannel. There's Sara, who's got diet pills on the brain; her son Harry, who dreams of a big score; Harry's girlfriend Marion, who's chasing the artistic dream; and his buddy Tyrone, on the hunt for the ultimate high. It's a carnival of despair, with prose that feels like a punch in the gut. Selby's novel is a cautionary tale turned up to eleven.
