Call Me Burroughs - Barry Miles

Call Me Burroughs: A Life by Barry Miles is a rigorously researched biography that finally gets to the heart of its notoriously mercurial subject. It was written with the full support of the Burroughs estate and draws from countless interviews with figures like Allen Ginsberg, Lucien Carr, and Burroughs himself. Biographer and Beat historian Barry Miles presents the first full-length biography of Burroughs to be published in a quarter century-and the first one to chronicle the last decade of Burroughs's life and examine his long-term cultural legacy.
