The late, great Kathy Acker interviews the late, great William S. Burroughs.
Alongside the late, great J.G. Ballard they were to me the holy trinity of "writers/artists/observers who understood our evolving modern world (and its dark, deep gutsy soul) far better than most." *
"They talk about many things: Word as Virus, Scientology, Jesus and the legion of apocryphal stories that followed Burroughs around like carrion crows. This took place in the late ’80s, and both had less than a decade to live, passing away within a few months of each other in 1997. We will not see their like again."**
