Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | One of the great innovators of the twentieth century and founding member of the Beats, William S. Burroughs (1914-1997) was the avant-garde author of over twenty books, ranging from straightforward and autobiographical (Junky, Queer) to surreal and anarchic (Naked Lunch, and The Nova Trilogy) to nostalgic, solemn and elegiac (The Wild Boys and The Red Night Trilogy). As the titles of his first two books imply, he was both a drug-addict and a homosexual bisexual, something he had always been grimly unapologetic about. |
