Burroughs, William S. : Junky
- description
- additional information
This is "the first complete and unexpurgated edition, originally published as "Junkie" under the pen name of William Lee."
Introduction by Allen Ginsberg.
"Bill Burroughs and I had known each other since Xmas 1944, and at the beginning of the 50's were in deep correspondence...By then Kerouac and I considered ourselves poet/writers in Destiny, and Bill was too diffident to make such extravagant theater of self. In any case he responded to my letters with chapters of "Junky" I think begun as curious sketching but soon conceived on his part--to my thrilled surprise--as continuing workmanlike fragments of a book, narrative on a subject."
Cover painting "Edvards Kopf" by Georg Baselitz, 1983.
