Book Synopsis

Nightmarish and fiercely funny, William Burroughs'' virtuoso, taboo-breaking masterpiece Naked Lunch follows Bill Lee through Interzone: a surreal, orgiastic wasteland of drugs, depravity, political plots, paranoia, sadistic medical experiments and endless, gnawing addiction. One of the most shocking novels ever written, Naked Lunch is a cultural landmark, now in a restored edition incorporating Burroughs'' notes on the text, alternate drafts and outtakes from the original.

''A masterpiece. A cry from hell, a brutal, terrifying, and savagely funny book that swings between uncontrolled hallucination and fierce, exact satire'' Newsweek

''Naked Lunch is a banquet you will never forget'' J. G. Ballard
