Title: It's certainly a classic
Review: A classic of the Look at Me Look at Me I'm Going to Shock You Out of Your Bourgeois Complacency School of Literature. Ground breaking only in that Burroughs was one of the first to get this kind of book published. If you enjoy having juvenile social commentary screeched at you with all the intensity normally reserved to angry and deep high school juniors, with the added bonus of having it obscured by scatological metaphors whose referents reside mainly in Burroughs's drug addled brain, then read this book - there is no better. All these 5 star reviews only go to prove that Emperors with out clothes will always have their fans. I must admit though that it was kind of fun to spot the phrases Steely Dan co-opted - nothing is without some value I suppose.
