Last Words by William S. Burroughs
The Final Journals of William S. Burroughs
A posthumous assemblage of final journals, notes, sketches and cut-up experiments that offers spare, acerbic reflections on aging, mortality, addiction, language and art. Entries shift between aphoristic pronouncements, fragmented memoir, caustic humor and surreal imagery, touching on lifelong obsessions with drugs, sex, music, politics and the mechanics of writing. The voice is candid, often playful and mordant, alternately philosophical and combative, revealing a writer still probing form and meaning even as he confronts decline and death.
