James Grauerholz Book order

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.

William Burroughs died in August 1997, after a lifetime of notoriety. In his final years, he was writing only in his journals. The last nine months of his diaries are here, in Last Words, and they form a complex, rarely seen, personal portrait of Burroughs at the end of his life, coming to terms with aging and death.

"Last Words" von Burroughs ist eine "Autobiographie in Bruchstücken", die wichtige Lebensstationen, Begegnungen und Werke thematisiert. Er gilt als Vater der Pop-Literatur und erfand das Cut-up-Verfahren. Das Buch kombiniert Tagebuch, Erinnerungen, Traumsequenzen und politische Kommentare.
