Book Reviews of The Wild Boys: A Book of the Dead (Burroughs, William S.)
Book Review: Read it if you wished Naked Lunch had been better.
Summary: 5 Stars
After reading Burroughs' more famous novel, Naked Lunch, I was interested but disappointed. Burroughs was much too high when he wrote it and many parts an incoherant. However, the lucid intervals were very well written and I wanted to read a book he wrote when he was more in control. The Wild Boys is that book. A poignant masterpiece that will push anyone who reads close to tears. Far better than Naked Lunch, anyone who thinks Burroughs was a one-trick pony should read it.
