Biography of experimental author william S. burroughs.
http://www.litkicks.com/People/WilliamSBurroughs.html

Extractions: Visit the general discussion board or view list of boards William Seward Burroughs was the grandson of the founder of the Burroughs Adding Machine company, which evolved into the Burroughs Corporation, which made huge, now outdated mainframe computers. The Burroughs corporation eventually merged with Sperry Univac and got absorbed into Unisys. Burroughs was born on February 5, 1914 in St. Louis , Missouri. His upper-class midwestern background did not suit his tastes. A bookworm with strong homoerotic urges, a fascination with guns and crime and a natural inclination to break every rule he could find, there seemed to be no way Burroughs could ever fit into normal society. His parents seemed to accept this, and after he graduated from Harvard they continued to support him financially as he experimented with various lifestyles. In his early thirties he traveled to New York and decided to pursue freedom by joining the city's gangster underworld. He became a heroin addict quite intentionally, in the process meeting the prototypical junkie drifter and future Beat hero Herbert Huncke . His St. Louis friends David Kammerer and Lucien Carr introduced him to a crowd of crazed young nonconformists studying at Columbia University , including Allen Ginsberg Jack Kerouac and Burroughs' future common-law wife

http://www.salon.com/sept97/wsb970902.html

Extractions: w illiam Burroughs' raw-boned figure haunted us long before his death. For nearly half a century, he infected our literature, seeding it with his obsessions, suspicions and passions. In his brutal honesty, we began to learn something new about truth and humor and maybe even love. Of the many authors who have acknowledged his influence, few have been as unflinching or provocative as J.G. Ballard. From the chromey auto-eroticism of "Crash" to the surrendered innocence of "Empire of the Sun," Ballard has refined a style that cuts through the moralism and sentimentality that blunt so much contemporary writing. After Burroughs' death, Ballard spoke to us by phone from his home in Shepperton, England. William Burroughs was someone who was suspicious of language and words, but his whole life was defined by them. Do you see a contradiction here? Perhaps the essential writer's contradiction? I think Burroughs was very much aware of the way in which language could be manipulated to mean absolutely the opposite of what it seems to mean. But that's something he shared with George Orwell. He was always trying to go through the screen of language to find some sort of truth that lay on the other side. I think his whole cut-up approach was an attempt to cut through the apparent manifest content of language to what he hoped might be some sort of more truthful world. A world of meaning that lay beyond. In books like "The Ticket that Exploded" and "The Soft Machine," you see this attempt to go through language to something beyond. If there is a paradox, I think it lies somewhere here.

William S. Burroughs: 20th Century Gnostic
In 1984, in Boulder, Colorado, an interviewer asked william S. burroughs (19141997), What religious persuasion would you consider yourself?

Extractions: 20th Century Gnostic Visionary I Upon reading those words, suddenly everything made sense. was quickly overshadowed by the real-world machinations of post-WWII Madison Avenue advertising techniques and Washington D.C. public relations firms. Brave New World Revisited The Job is a must-not-live-without Control With the analytical eye of a surgeon (Burroughs studied medicine at Harvard, specialised knowledge that would eventually serve him well in his novels), Burroughs performed an autopsy on the body politic in a multitude of bleak and humorous novels, foremost among them Junky Naked Lunch The Soft Machine Nova Express (1964), and The Place of Dead Roads But Burroughs never limited his vision to merely charting out the intricate connections that make up the system of control. Like Huxley before him, who eventually followed his dystopian novel Brave New World with a Utopian counterpoint titled The Island , Burroughs himself attempted to construct his own vision of a Utopia in such novels as The Wild Boys (1971) and Cities of the Red Night In the first case, the autonomous zone takes the form of an all-male enclave in the jungles of North Africa; these commandos, trained in combat for defensive purposes, can reproduce without the aid of women and travel through the trees on prehensile hemorrhoids.

http://www.glbtq.com/literature/burroughs_ws.html

Extractions: Burroughs, William S. (1914-1997) In his novels as in his life, William S. Burroughs was an outlaw and a provocateur. Beginning with Naked Lunch (1959), his fiction was distinguished by violently hallucinatory images, rendered in prose that brilliantly mimics the speech of criminals, redneck sheriffs, bureaucrats, political extremists, and hipsters. A series of later writings applied collage techniques to the novel form. Burroughs always incorporated transgressive sexual imagery and situations into his writing. In this, he went far beyond the acknowledgment, in the 1950s, of his own homosexuality. His novels contain representations of such practices as autoerotic asphyxiation and sadomasochism. Primarily a satirist, Burroughs treated both sexuality and language as manifestations of social powerand as sites of conflict. Sponsor Message.

William Burroughs Interview With Don Swaim
william burroughs is interviewed by Don Swaim of CBS Radio.
http://wiredforbooks.org/williamburroughs/

Extractions: William Burroughs, author of Queer, Junkie Naked Lunch Cities of the Red Night , joins Don Swaim in this 1984 interview on his 70th birthday. He talks about how he inherited his wealth and how it was the weekly allowance he received from his parents that financed his drug addiction to morphine. His stint outside of the United States (from the 40s to about the 60s) was mainly because of his addiction. Buying morphine in Tangier (a city in Morocco) is legal. Despite his vise, he could still write well under the influence. Burroughs finally became sober in 1957 and at the time of the interview, only drank alcohol and smoked cigarettes. Listen to his views on drug use and his memories of Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg by clicking on the link below. Listen to the William Burroughs interview with Don Swaim, 1984 (24 min. 55 sec.) In this 1985 interview with Don Swaim, William Burroughs, who at times wrote under the name William Lee, discusses publishing his manuscript of Queer , which followed Junkie , his first novel about his own experiences as a drug addict. Burroughs also talks about his drug addiction claiming it is easier to get through life with "junk" but it's very inhibiting to creativity.
