A womanizer’s struggle for self-control spirals into crime, madness,
and murder Harry White grew up in blue-collar Brooklyn, but the young
man’s charm, smarts, and good looks have helped him earn a place as
an uptown junior executive. White’s gifts have also made his love
life easy, and he takes special pleasure in seducing married women.
But when “Harry the Lover” is ready to grow up and leave his
womanizing behind, White finds that suppressing his libido has
dangerous consequences. His attempts at restraint awaken something
sinister, causing White to seek excitement in a new form of violence
and depravity. Shocking and enthralling, The Demon is an
unflinching meditation on male vanity by one of the most acclaimed and
original writers of the twentieth century. This ebook features an
illustrated biography of Hubert Selby Jr. including rare photos from
the author’s estate.
