Her name was Hetty. She was the best of the bunch, they said. Wilkie had his eye on her. That proved it, for Wilkie was tough and he had money and he only went for the best.

At first nobody could understand why Hetty turned him down. The one day things were different. "Ah," they said, "she's come to her senses..."

A WANTON MURDER

A MUTILATED BODY

A STALKING KILLER

"Mr. Kool? Why hit him?" the cop asked.

"Why?" His partner shrugged. "Because he was a black cop in a jungle...he just got too close to the animals."

Mr. Kool may have been the "fuzz"-"no better than any other jive-ass cop"-to most of the inhabitants of the ghetto. But to H.J., A.P., Monk, Gri'Gri' and Mau Mau he was a friend, a man who tried to understand young blacks and their problems. His death at the hands of a vengeful ex-con plunged the gang into a chilling manhunt-a race against time and terror in which five black kids pit their street know-how and motherwit against the steel cunning of a crazed killer...

BETHNAL GREEN

...a brawling, dingy, decaying mass of street-markets and pubs, damp old houses, reeking gasometers and littered bomb-sites.

Ricky Flint knew no other world. Yet he craved to burst out, to win a better life somewhere for himself and his girl Catherine, an amoral slut, but fired by her own fierce pride...

How Ricky met his one violent chance is told with biting authenticity.

The boys on the bikes.

The boys who do a ton on the by-pass.

Aimless, lawless, sometimes cowardly and vain, they spend a packet on their clothes and hair-styles.

Working-class boys with big wages, and nothing much to do with their money.

This is the story of two of them, Dick and Reggie.

Reggie was the married one-he was only seventeen when he got tied up and just didn't know what it was all about. He left his wife and went to stay with Dick, and the relationship that developed between them was just too hot to handle.

This is a book with a vicious kick to it. Here are the problems of delinquent youth which growl and grumble under the facade of our society, threatening to blow it sky-high. You have read about these boys in the newspapers; this book takes you right there with them; under their leather jackets-under their skins.

West stood an inch shorter than Rick, squirming to release himself.

Rick's hand crushed tighter on the collar. He peered into the hateful eyes and spoke quietly. "Pronounce my name correctly, West."

The Class had grown terribly quiet.

"You want me to pronounce your name, sir?" West asked politely.

"You heard me."

"- you, Mr. Daffy..."

Rick's hand lashed out, slapping West squarely across the mouth....And then the knife snapped into view, sudden and terrifying. Long and shining, it caught the pale sunlight that slanted through the long schoolroom windows.

WERE THEY HEROES...OR PUNKS?

The Fourth of July dawned hot and ominous. The city was steaming-ready to go off like a string of firecrackers. The big rumble was on.

It would take Papa Arnold's Family far from their Brooklyn turf. Before the night was over they would have to fight their way home. They would seek out-and find-the city's dangers, its violence, its mysteries. They would rape and kill. But above all, they would stick together.

They were brothers. The Family was the only family they had.

cherie and the cowboy

Cherie was a chanteuse. She said, "I call m'self Cherie. Thass all the name ya need-like Hildegarde. I won a amateur contest down in Joplin, Missouri, and that got me a job in a night club in Kanz City. But working in a night club ain't all roses..."

Bo Decker had his picture taken by Life magazine because he was a champion professional rodeo rider. Bo had heard about women only he'd hardly ever seen one. Bo was a large, beautiful hunk of a 

man-but green as new grass when it came to Cherie.

Bo and Cherie got together when they were stranded at a bus stop one night.

Their story is one of high humor-a mixture of brag, heartache, bluster, and the funniest tough love affair ever put on stage, screen, or between the covers of a book. It is filled with comedy, compassion and tenderness-

'scrubbers'

Annetta and Carol - when they broke out of Borstal they were friends. But now they're caught, back inside, sent to the tough, closed Borstal - it's different. Annetta thinks Carol's betrayed her - and she's going to get her brutal revenge.

SCRUBBERS is a glimpse into a closed world - the violence, the hopelessness, the uneasy alliances between the inmates, built on love and lust and fear. But SCRUBBERS also captures the unique affinity that exists between the prisoners, the rough, bawdy humour that helps them endure the desperate life behind prison bars.

This is the novel behind the WHO's conceptual rock album "QUADROPHENIA", the story of the mods and rockers of the early sixties, now a stunning new film.

QUADROPHENIA

They were dedicated to fashion, music and pills. They created the 'Style', followed the WHO, the SMALL FACES and the STONES, rode polished Lambrettas and assembled in their thousands to fight.

By 1964, the year of the Brighton riots, the mods had revolutionised a whole generation...

SHE GREW UP TOO FAST...

She was young, blonde and beautiful-a smouldering package of feminine dynamite in a body too mature for her years...

She was one of the crowd who grew up too fast, who defy death for the casual "thrill" of it, who are out for "kicks" at any price...

Disturbing and boldly realistic, HOT ROD GANG RUMBLE is an incisive portrait of a "hot rod club" -and the slick chick who stirred it to violence and destruction!

the Man with the Golden Arm

Carl Sandburg says of Nelson Algren

"Great qualities of insight into people, a heart of pity, a gift of cadence and song, and often when you near heartbreak he throws in comic relief. The interwoven police, politicians, gamblers and thieves, fixers and hustlers, the jargons of the night-clubs and prisons, these are here in The Man with the Golden Arm. Algren makes his living grotesques so terribly human that their faces, voices, shames, follies and deaths, can linger in your mind with a strange midnight dignity. I join with Ernest Hemingway in hoping that Algren lives on, holds to his standards, and writes a long shelf of books."

THE BEAT GENERATION

is the searing story of the restless, jaded men and women, with no aim in life except a new sensation-drugs, "way-out" jazz, perverted sex, actual crime.

THE BEAT GENERATION

is especially the story of rich, young Stan Belmont, who had known every thrill. Now his only kick was - rape.

THE BEAT GENERATION

is an MGM release, a spectacular Albert Zugsmith production starring Steve Cochran, Mamie Van Doren, Ray Danton, Fay Spain, Maggie Hayes, Jackie Coogan, and Louis Armstrong  and his All-Stars.

Here's the big novel

of the restless ones who hop from thrill to thrill, the groovy cats who call themselves Beatniks-try anything for kicks but are never satisfied-

"A lasting work of art!

Superlatives are dangerous, but sometimes hard to resist. George Lucas's American Graffiti is easily the best movie [of 1973]. Beyond that, I think it is the most important American movie since Five Easy Pieces-maybe since Bonnie and Clyde. The special excitement of the film is that it takes us beyond nostalgia-into a rediscovery of the past and of memories that might have been lost forever. American Graffiti is like going home; it's a primal experience!"

-Stephen Farber, The (Sunday) New York Times

"A very good movie, funny, tough, unsentimental!"

-Roger Greenspun, The New York Times

"A masterfully executed and profoundly affecting movie!"

-The Los Angeles Times

**** An altogether endearing movie that turns back the clock to an age of sublime innocence. Warm, funny, and poignant, a richly entertaining movie guaranteed to please nearly everyone!"
