Young Adam

(1957)
A novel by

Alexander Trocchi

"Alex Trocchi has the courage so essential to a writer. He writes about spirit, flesh, and death and the vision that comes through the flesh . . . he has been there and brought it back."
William S Burroughs


"Alexander Trocchi was a major figure in cosmopolitan new-consciousness fifties--and sixties--literature."
Allen Ginsberg


 

Originally published in 1957, this is an existentialist murder thriller set on a canal somewhere between Edinburgh and Glasgow. The corpse of a naked woman floats downstream and an innocent man is tried for the crime.
