William Burroughs: the writer as X-orcist
a talk by John Constable aka John Crow
Did William S. Burroughs predict, and partly cause, the mess we’re in? Is ‘Mekon LuX’ a space invader from Burroughs’ 1964 novel Nova Express all set to blow up the planet and blast off to Mars?
If Language is a virus, is Silence the antidote? If ‘Lemon SuX’ is the Ugly Spirit, is Burroughs
the X-orcist? Or is it all just X-rated fun & fiddle as the Earth goes up in smoke?
