Driven to desperation by the hand the world has dealt him, the
suicidal narrator of Waiting Period attempts to buy a gun to end
his life. But a computer malfunction causes a delay with the gun
license: a life-saving event that sees the man questioning why he
should die when there are so many others he believes should go
before him. Planning the perfect murder, he chooses a victim - a
bureaucrat responsible for denying him his benefits - and discovers
to his amazement that his plan works perfectly. But now this man
has found his purpose in life, how far will he go with his mission?
In his final novel, Hubert Selby Jr. offers a shocking and
fascinating examination of morality, murder and one man's personal
war.
