A Youth in Babylon David F. Friedman – Rare Trash Cinema Memoir Library Copy

For fans of cult cinema history, exploitation films, and countercultural memoirs, here is a rare copy of A Youth in Babylon: Confessions of a Trash-Film King by David F. Friedman with Don De Nevi.

In this candid autobiography, Friedman, known as the “trash film king,” pulls back the curtain on the lurid world of exploitation cinema. He shares firsthand accounts of low-budget filmmaking, the grindhouse theater circuit, and the colorful cast of personalities that defined an era of transgressive film. A fascinating behind-the-scenes look into an underbelly of American film rarely documented so openly.

This copy is a former library book, with expected stamps, stickers, and wear, but remains intact and highly readable. These editions are highly sought after and increasingly scarce, making this a valuable addition to any collection of film history, counterculture, or cult cinema literature.
