... Burroughs wrote Naked Lunch whilst he was still under the influence of what he termed “the sickness”. ... But, whether or not you agree with this decision, and I assure you that you will have an opinion by the end of the book; it is very hard to deny that Naked Lunch is a beautifully wrought piece of literature.
Naked Lunch has no real discernable plot, being the culmination of Burroughs’s time spent in a poor section of Tangiers binging on drugs and sex. ...
Naked Lunch is a collection of loosely related incidents and anecdotes, many of which take place in a location known as “Interzone”. ... I’ve read my fair share of drug related literature including Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Electric Cool-Aide Acid Test, and Requiem for a Dream, but none of these stories left quite the same sense of unrest that Naked Lunch did.
