has anyone got any info on what this is? due for release next year. is it old texts of his that have been compiled or something? going by the title i'm wondering if it's some kind of post humous autobiography (who was it he was always quoting 'my past is an evil river'?). if anyone knows anything please let me know. the publisher is viking press, i haven't been able to find contact info for them though. if anyone knows how i can get in touch with the publisher it would be most appreciated.

According to Amazo, it will b categorized as Autobiography/biography. Other than that, the internet holds its peace.



Sorry. AmazoN. The "N" key is failing.

Signs so far would suggest some kind of collection of biographical rambles cobbled together from the (no doubt vast) selection of unpublished papers, diaries, whatever..

A lot of Burroughs books read like they've been hammered into shape from a far larger pool of writing, and most of them obliquely reference his life and personality almost continuously, so it would make sense that there'd be a lot of stuff left over..
