| Description: | Select Guide Rating A book of dreams that cover themes from the mundane and ordinary - conversations with the author's friends Allen Ginsberg or Ian Sommerville, feeding his cats, procuring drugs or sex - to the erotic, bizarre and visionary. My Education is Burroughs''s last novel, first published two years before his death in 1997. It is a book of dreams, collected over several decades and as close to a memoir as we will see. The dreams cover themes from the mundane and ordinary - conversations with his friends Allen Ginsberg or Ian Sommerville, feeding his cats, procuring drugs or sex - to the erotic, bizarre and visionary. Always a rich source of imagery in Burroughs''s own fiction, in this book dreams become a direct and powerful force in themselves. |
