thanks for the posting, I had no idea. The Amazon.com reviews are very good for this....

not burroughs best, nor kerouacs. only published due to their fame, not horrible, but not amazing either.

cities of the red night/naked lunch are what you want if you're new to burroughs, just jump in at the deep end.

it was an early attempt, one of their first i think. they got better with time and drug use.
