Has anyone read this? I was thinking of getting it. Is it a good read?
I've owned this book for YEARS and never read it....I should finally read it huh?

Haha.Let me know how it is.
well I'm on page 95 and so far, it's pretty good. it's cool to read an authentic account of what daily life is like for a heroin addict. it's not overly dramatic or exciting yet, but it's been an easy and entertaining read. it's from a while ago, so it's dated....I'll holla back when I'm finished.

Cool. Thanks for the info
just finished it last night...I'd agree with Clem (and not just because I think he's cool) it was a nice read. pretty insightful, like I said before and shyt gets wild for him towards the end. I think you appreciate it a lot more if you've also read Burroughs' other works.

Thanks Subconcious & Clem. What other books of his should I check out first?
