It's a book written by the beatnick William Burroughs in the 60s.It's my favorite book.
It's a book made on heroin so it's pretty psycho and psychedelic, sometimes very gore and obscene.But i like the surrealistic style of Burroughs and i has a great humor.And i like the fact he didn't promote drugs like others autors, he's totally aware fo his lake of freedom.He used to fight against them actually.The "story" takes in the "Interzone", a country invented by him and a world totally crazy where everybody is gay and junky.If you Rimbaud,Hunter Thompson or this kind of guy i'm sure you'll like this book!
Do you know it?
Sorry i can't write an extract from it cause i've it in french and it's too complicated to translate!
So if you have nothing to read, read this, and if i remember, he's one of the favorite autor of Serj (if you would meet him, you would have an idea of conversation ) |

| I'm reading it. It's actually a bit difficult in English (because of the slang). |
