A masterpiece. A cry from hell, a brutal, terrifying, and savagely funny book that swings between uncontrolled hallucination and fierce, exact satire. --Newsweek

Burroughs possesses a special literary gift....[Naked Lunch] takes a coldly implacable look at the dark side of our nature.... --Books of the Century, New York Times
