Over the course of his legendary career, Harlan Ellison has de?ed-and sometimes de?ned-modern fantasy literature, all while refusing to allow any genre to claim him. A Grand Master of the Science Fiction Writers of America, winner of the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Horror Writers Association as well as winner of countless awards, including the Hugo, Nebula, Edgar Allan Poe and Bram Stoker, Ellison is as unpredictable as he is unique, irrepressible as he is infuriating. E-Reads is proud to publish over thirty titles in Ellison’s brilliant catalog, now available in an elegant new package featuring Ellison himself. Genius never felt so combustible. Bold and uncompromising, GENTLEMAN JUNKIE AND OTHER STORIES OF THE HUNG-UP GENERATION is a watershed moment in Harlan Ellison's early writing career. Rather than dealing in speculative fiction, these 25 short stories directly tackle issues of discrimination, injustice, bigotry, and oppression by the police. Pulling from his own experience, Ellison paints vivid portraits of the helpless and downtrodden, blazing forth with the kind of unblinking honesty that would define his career. Reviewing this collection, Dorothy Parker called Ellison "a good, honest, clean writer, putting down what he has seen and known, and no sensationalism about it."

""Raw, vital, uncompromising-- here are portraits of the lost, the damned, the helpless, trying to get a handle on life. A startling collection of 'hip' stories by an impressive young writer, torn from the shadows of the twilight world" --"
