William S. Burroughs Cutting Up the Century
Autor Joan Hawkins, Henry Alexander Wermer–colan, Charles Cannon, Tony A. Breweren Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 mai 2019
William S. Burroughs Cutting Up the Century also features original essays, interviews, and discussions by established Burroughs scholars, respected artists, and people who encountered Burroughs. The essays consider Burroughs from a range of starting points--literary studies, media studies, popular culture, gender studies, post-colonialism, history, and geography. Ultimately, the collection situates Burroughs as a central artist and thinker of his time and considers his insights on political and social problems that have become even more dire in ours.
