"In Understanding William Burroughs, Gerald Miller conjures a
welcome, timely vision of the writer's art. Combining literary
history, philosophy and biography, Miller offers uncompromising
accounts of an important American artist, drawing him out from the
shadow of literary myth to illuminate his kaleidoscopic individual
works and career." --Henry Veggian, University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill
"Understanding William S. Burroughs provides an ideal point of
entry for readers intimidated by the prospect of delving into the
life and work of this challenging, sometimes outrageous author.
Dexterously moving through Burroughs's novels as well as an
impressive array of secondary sources, Gerald Miller makes a
compelling case for Burroughs's centrality to postmodern literature
and poststructuralist philosophy." --Nathaniel Cadle, Florida
International University
