William S. Burroughs is quite infamous, as is his group of Beatnik friends. Here we get to take a look into Burrough's subconscious. He rarely gives us more than his dreams themselves, only occasionally making conscious waking comments or giving us a bit of related information. Some is done with the "cut-up" technique. This was the last novel published by Burroughs before his death in 97. Here lie Burrough's dream cats, strange phantom creatures, searches for drugs, sex, breakfast, flying and levitation dreams, packing dreams, we see it all, Tangier, London, Paris, Ian Sommerville, Allen Ginsberg, Brion Gysin, even L. Ron Hubbard. All of these and more twist and turn within Burroughs sleeping mind, giving witness to a ghost-like opiate induced nightmare reality. You may find it interesting to research how Burroughs wrote. In the end, I only felt a deep pity for the man.Read full review
