I don't know if I love this book or completely despise it.

>>23816816Is it true that Katy was Burroughs' biggest influence?
>>23817161Katy who?
>Burroughs more or less openly brags about engaging in sex tourism, to fuck young boys>probably murdered his wife tooLiterally, how did he not go to prison?
>>23815672>dude, so hear me out...>buttholesCritics:>this is literally a masterpiece
>>23815672I had the worst panic attack of my life like 20 pages in would not recommend
>>23815672William Burroughs and his influences have been a disaster for the human race
I tried reading Burrough's work because I like the Cronenberg movie. I think I probably just like Cronenberg as a film maker, because this stuff is kind of shit to be honest. I guess if you want a window into the mind of an abject degenerate from like 80 years ago, knock yourself out, but it's not doing a lot for me.
>>23817244I laughed out loud when he randomly started talking about "tight Arab ass" or something.
Nearly dropped this book halfway through, it was too much for my Fragile heart

>>23817276It's a lot more enjoyable when you go into it knowing it's just a bunch of occasionally amusing or interesting schizo rants than actually going in expecting an actually good book.

>>23817290Call me an edge lord if you want, but I never found the book all that shocking, at least not in an "oh I'm so disturbed" way. It was really funny in my opinion.
>>23817161Celine was >>23817244It was an accident, also the young boys fucked him not the other way around
>>23815672I loved it. it's hilarious and there is some genuinely creative and create genre writing in it. I read junky after and loved that too
>>23818824>the young boys fucked himDoes that make it better?
Hilarious and haunting, the most concise summary(parody) of humanity you will find
