Couldn't get into this - perhaps I'm burned out on junk-related tales for the time being.

So I stumbled across references to this book in two other books I just finished which reminded me to add to my shelf. Read this in college, lost my copy sadly...but a great read for those of you who enjoy Burroughs (W.S. etc).

Plotless story about heroin addiction in the 1950s.
