By (author): William S. Burroughs

'Junk is not, like alcohol or weed, a means to increased enjoyment of life. Junk is not a kick. It is a way of life'

William Burroughs, legendary drug addict, founder member of the Beats and author of Naked Lunch, relates with unflinching realism the addict's life: from initial heroin bliss to an unabated hunger for the needle, and the horrors of cold turkey and back again.

About William S. Burroughs

William S. Burroughs was born on February 5 1914 in St Louis. In work and in life Burroughs expressed a lifelong subversion of the morality politics and economics of modern America. To escape those conditions and in particular his treatment as a homosexual and a drug-user Burroughs left his homeland in 1950 and soon after began writing. By the time of his death he was widely recognised as one of the most politically trenchant culturally influential and innovative artists of the twentieth century. His numerous books include Naked Lunch Junky Queer Nova Express Interzone The Wild Boys The Ticket That Exploded and The Soft Machine. After living in Mexico City Tangier Paris and London Burroughs finally returned to America in 1974. He died in 1997.
