Description:... In this pioneering study, Robin
Lydenberg focuses upon the stylistic accomplishments of this controversial and
experimental writer. In doing so, she skillfully demonstrates that the ideas
we now recognize as characteristic of post-structuralism and deconstruction
were being developed independently by Burroughs long ago.
