Title: Not for your morning commute
Review: I had a bit of a problem with Naked Lunch because there is only so much monster on young boy gay sex I can read about on the train each morning before work. I don't know - this book definitely has its moments - Burroughs was obviously is brilliant man with a fantastic way with words, but the "non-linear" way Naked Lunch is written is just not for me. I have seen very intelligent people rave about this book, but I just can't get into it. I do think it influenced Layne Staley of Alice in Chains though, so all you Dirt fans might want to check it out. But yeah, this is a weird book to read in public because you keep thinking the person next to you is going to peer over your shoulder and see what you're reading - I had the same experience with American Psycho (an excellent book).
