The anarchic, phenomenally strong-selling classic from the godfather of the Beats, featuring for the first time the restored text, all the accompanying essays, and newly discovered material from the original manuscript. Revitalised with a cool new jacket and an anecdote-packed P.S. Section. Welcome to Interzone! Say hello to Bradley the Buyer, the best narcotics agent in the business. Check yourself into the hospital where Dr Benway works -- but don't expect adrenalin if you need it (the night porter shot it up for kicks). Meet Dr 'Fingers' Schafer, the Lobotomy Kid, and his greatest creation, 'The Complete American De-anxietized Man', a marvel of invasive psychiatry who has been reduced to nothing but a spinal cord. Told by an Ivy League-educated narcotics addict, 'Naked Lunch' juxtaposes two journeys: the narrator's physical progress from America to North Africa, via Mexico, and a terrifying descent into his own altered consciousness. In this 'Interzone', loosely based on Burroughs' temporary home of Tangier, sex, drugs and murder are the most basic of commodities, and the basest desires have become completely banal. Provocative, influential, morbidly fascinating and mordantly funny, 'Naked Lunch' takes us on an exhilarating ride through the darkest recesses of the human psyche -- a ride which stunned the literary world when first published in the repressed 1950s, and is still guaranteed to epater more than a few bourgeois. Over forty years since first publication, Burroughs scholar Barry Miles and Burroughs' longtime editor James Grauerholz have compiled this definitive restored text, correcting numerous errors that have accumulated over the years, and incorporating all of Burroughs' notes and accompanying essays. Most exciting of all, this edition includes an appendix of newly discovered, never before seen material -- including alternate drafts from the original manuscript and letters from Burroughs' private correspondence.

*《裸体午餐》 威廉.巴勒斯* 【一点也不推荐 只是评论一下让我看起来很叼而已 书背后的名人推荐词里,詹姆斯.巴拉德将其称为 自然主义小说 ——不禁为这个称呼拍手叫好。另有人称其为 毒品文学,大体能概括其文章特点,而“自然主义”则是将其内涵交代得明白。 虽然大部分字句...
评分《裸体午餐》是威廉巴勒斯式的头脑大爆炸,一列完全失控的地下铁,疯狂而让人恐惧,正如作者所言美国人特别害怕失控,同时他们的控制力又表现在“拿不正常当习以为常”和“人人都这样”。 我们不能简单地将威廉巴勒斯归类为垮掉派或是意识流,因为我们可以在凯鲁亚克的《在路上...
评分 评分此书看得我一脑袋浆糊,按说作者与杰克•凯鲁亚克同时代的人,可是本书与《在路上》根本不是一个时代,反倒是与新寓言派的《战争》,说实话常规根本无法理解此书。 同样做为描写毒品的书,此书又与昆西的《瘾君子自白》也天差地别。我就奇怪了,难道吸毒也有现代与后现代的差...
评分不少段落难以卒读,但是谁也无法否认其中的能量(与之相比,竟生出品钦的东西不够hardcore的错觉)。很少有作家有如此的生活,很少有如此的小说。本作说明,在某种情况下,一部杂乱得几乎没有章法的小说可以媲美纳博科夫式的精巧算计。有一种小说以行星爆炸的面貌出现。作为读...
