Book Overview

by Walter Whitney (Author)

A savage novel of raw emotion, sudden violence, and frightening lust... a novel so daring that it was banned and pilloried...and then lost for over sixty years.

This is the story of country people, derisively referred to as "hillbillies," who traveled to the big city in the 1950s for factory jobs...and where some of those men fell prey to ruthless, greedy women eager to fleece them of their hard-earned pay. Fran is one of those women, a former hillbilly herself, who knows how to expertly manipulate men. But then she gets involved with Leroy Landers, who wants more from her than what she wants to give, more than she can give, and when he doesn't get it, his backwoods rage boils over.

Upon its release in 1957, Take It Out in Trade was immediately declared "objectionable" by the Roman Catholic Church's National Office of Decent Literature. The book soon fell out of print for decades and author Walter Whitney, believed to be a pseudonym, was never heard from again...at least not under his real name.

Now the incendiary novel is finally back in print so you can decide if it is irredeemable trash, or pulpy, harmless entertainment...or even genuine literature.
