LARB A.V. presents a short documentary on the life of writer William S. Burroughs, in honor of his birthday centennial. With great help from celebrated biographer Barry Miles, we explore the curious and genuinely rich life that led Burroughs from his "quasi-aristocratic" background to drug-addled jaunts in midtown Manhattan and sex-fueled romps in Tangiers. Discover a major literary figure, a pioneer of the Beat Generation, and one of the most influential personalities of the 20th century.
