I wouldn't be surprised to know that the majority of people who may read this have already picked up this book, but if not - DO IT. This title tends to be the most well known of Burroughs' memoirs, however it was the third of his works that I turned the pages of. It was no wonder to me why it was the most popular though. Awesome read.
I personally love Burroughs' style of writing; I think its because it's very reminiscent of my own writing style. Sarcastic and cynical at times, but genuine underneath. I find myself getting caught up so easily in his stories that before I know it hours have gone by.
I recommend this memoir to anyone and I guarantee it will make you look at your own life a little differently. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll let all your friends borrow it. Get off the computer and do some real reading.
