William S. Burroughs
The Soft Machine
New York: Grove Press, 1966.
Second printing.
First appearing in 1961, this continues the nightmare started in Naked Lunch and further developed in Nova Express.
Burroughs blends drug hallucination, satire against the State and a science fiction vision of alternative universes into a grim cocktail, that could be described as coming from the brain of Kurt Vonnegut's much moreevil twin.
Very good book in slightly worn jacket.
