New Yorker Victor Bockris, biographer of Lou Reed in particular, and key witness to trendy New York in the 70s and 80s, publishes this book which opens up unpublished archives on William S. Burroughs. More than a book devoted to the author of Naked Lunch, it is above all a dive into the artistic universe of New York and its actors: Basquiat, Warhol, Allan Ginsberg, Keith Haring, Debbie Harry… Shot at Burroughs ‘ Manhattan residence “The Bunker” at 333 Bowery (an old YMCA owned by John Giorno) during the 70s & 80s.
