WILLIAM BURROUGHS - CITIES OF THE RED NIGHT

Absolutely bonkers novel from easily one of my favourite writers. Every time you think you have a hold of the narrative of this book it twists and turns and your left scratching your head. Combining Historical and adventure fiction with sci fi and typical 50s beat sparse prose this book spans a bizarre satirical attack on modern culture and society. Probably some of his best work combing his earlier more "straight" prose with his later cut up work this will fuck your head. Part one of three, so if you like this one there are another two to expand your pathetic hippie mind.
