ISBN:  9780802121950 (pbk.) 0802121950 (pbk.) Alternate title:  Selected essays Edition:  1st ed. Description:  xxiii, 238 p. ; 21 cm. Notes:  Essays. Summary:  This collection, containing both fiction and nonfiction, is representative of Burroughs's work. The style and tone are vintage Burroughs; the themes of addiction, mind control, and homosexuality central to the novels are explored here more succinctly. The most original material consists of comments on writing and writers: perceptive remarks on Hemingway and Fitzgerald, an interesting comparison of Proust and Beckett, and an acknowledgment of Conrad's influence on a portion of Naked Lunch.
