withdrawal symptoms Books
by William S. Burroughs
Amazon Price:
Customer Review: Burroughs' work is a reaction to post -1945 cold war America in its radical deployment of tone, style and content. It endured bans, censorship and obscenity trials before hitting bookstores in the early nineteen sixties. But for all that, its continuing power is as spiritual work that makes it more than merely a insightful document of its times.
"Naked Lunch" is no "Ulysses" and yet it shares a kinship with that masterwork. Not so much the use of stream of consciousness but in other stylistic aspects; discontinuity of plot and ideas, in its unreliable narration and author's desire to shock the reader. But more than that, both works contain a transformative imagination.
In subject matter "Naked Lunch" is more extreme than "Ulysses". It repeatedly forces the viewer to see sexual acts, physical violence and self-destruction in a way that is more than shocking. It is about the act of seeing itself, about imagination itself not tied to character or story but to pure vision whether drug induced or not.
The style - anti-narrative and anti-story - Dadaism in American garb, deprives the reader of any fictive crutch that could ease and blur the power of what is written. Even though those mid-century social outcasts, the homosexual and the junky are no longer as outrageous as they were in 1959, how they are depicted, laying bare the human impulses of disgust and destruction, retains the power to shock because in the fifty years since, we've seen many, many drug abusers and homosexuals in literature and pop culture but none of those portrayals are more raw and cringe-worthy than what Burroughs shows us.
The insistence on the otherworldly vulgarity, on the repetition of debased acts has an incantatory, ritualistic quality that only starts to make sense when Burroughs' invokes the Sollubi, an untouchable caste known for their debased existence. He ponders that they might be a fallen priestly caste that take "on themselves all human vileness." The same could be said of "Naked Lunch".
by Christopher Kennedy Lawford
Amazon Price: $7.99
Customer Review: It was difficult for me to sleep after I finished this book last night. Thinking about it now makes me sick to my stomach. Mr Lawford writes well enough, it's his character that I find most disturbing. Given his childhood traumas of parental abuse and neglect, he chooses to ditch his own wife and kids to become a part-time dad and full time "player" and justifies it as personal growth. The most troubling aspect of the book is that what his parents did to him they did "under the influence". This man chose to throw his family off the cliff stone sober and then boasts about it. Fortunately for me, I watched an ABC special about author and father of three children, Randy Pausch, after finishing this book. Mr. Pausch is a truly inspirational man who shares the love of his family in a memoir, taking special care to erect safety nets for them as they approach the cliff's edge. It's been said that nothing is more frightening than a person with no conscience. That's what I found most disturbing about this story. The only consolation is that the paper and covers are recyclable and that's exactly where this book belongs.
I'm Dancing As Fast As I Can
by Barbara Gordon
Amazon Price:
Customer Review: While this compelling, but somewhat antiquated, true story chronicles Barbara's hell during withdrawal from Valium, the point somehow seems to have been missed by the psychiatric community. Benzo prescriptions and hospital detox admissions (at least in the US) are at an all time high. If Valium wasn't enough hell, the drug companies are peddling even stronger and more addictive version of theses benzos. Including Ativan and Zanax being 2 of the most commonly prescribed drugs in America today. Barbara's story is a power and compelling tale of the dangers of these drugs, but unfortunately it's lesson has had no effect on widespread prescribing and subsequent addition to these drugs.
All one needs to do to verify what I'm saying is join the benzo group at yahoogroups.com. There you will find hundreds if not thousands of people all over the world trying to cope with living the life of an "accidental addict".
Unfortunately few will ever recover from this addiction and most will die from it or at least with it.

Customer Review: Very interesting book by the son of the guy that wrote Naked Lunch. The son is also a junky and he ends up in a rehap institute. A nice discussion of the life of a junky and a new perspective on the after-effects of the beat generation without being judgmental or the least bit preachy. While it's not high literature, it is very well written and worth a chance.
