William S. Burroughs
William Seward Burroughs (1914-1997) is a legendary figure in American literature of this century, a writer compared to Villon, Rimbaud, and Genet. Both his life and work, characterized by total pessimism and a grim sense of humor, reflect an attitude of permanent rebellion against conventional society. Homosexual, drug addict for many years, friend and idol of Kerouac and Ginsberg, he is considered the great "guru" of the beat generation, despite his refusal to be included in it.
