  • "Say hello to Bradley the Buyer, the best narcotics agent in the business. Check yourself into the hospital where Dr Benway works - but don't expect adrenalin if you need it (the night porter shot it up for kicks). Meet Dr F̀ingers' Schafer, the Lobotomy Kid, and his greatest creation, T̀he Complete American De-anxietized Man', a marvel of invasive psychiatry who has been reduced to nothing but a spinal cord. Told by an Ivy League-educated narcotics addict, Ǹaked Lunch' juxtaposes two journeys: the narrator's physical progress from America to North Africa, via Mexico, and a terrifying descent into his own altered consciousness. In this Ìnterzone', loosely based on Burroughs' temporary home of Tangier, sex, drugs and murder are the most basic of commodities, and the basest desires have become completely banal. Provocative, influential, morbidly fascinating and mordantly funny, Ǹaked Lunch' takes us on an exhilarating ride through the darkest recesses of the human psyche - a ride which stunned the literary world when first published in the 1950s, and is still guaranteed to shock. This edition uses the definitive, restored text, compiled by Burroughs scholar Barry Miles and Burroughs' longtime editor James Grauerholz."

  • ""Ce livre, longtemps interdit, est devenu légendaire. "Le festin nu" est une descente aux enfers de la drogue - morphine, héroïne, cocaïne, opium ... Sujétion, délivrance et rechute, tel est le cycle qui constitue l'un des problèmes du monde moderne. Suite d'épisodes enchevêtrés et disparates où se mêlent hallucinations et métamorphoses, clowneries surréalistes et scènes d'horreur à l'état pur, cauchemars et délires poético-scientifiques, érotisme et perversions, "Le festin nu" est d'une veine à la fois terrifiante, macabre, et d'un comique presque insoutenable."
  • "Une descente aux enfers de la drogue. Un classique halluciné et terrifiant."
  • "Since its original publication in Paris in 1959, Naked Lunch has become one of the most important novels of the twentieth century. Exerting its influence on the relationship of art and obscenity, it is one of the books that redefined not just literature but American culture. For the Burroughs enthusiast and the neophyte, this volume?that contains final-draft typescripts, numerous unpublished contemporaneous writings by Burroughs, his own later introductions to the book, and his essay on psychoactive drugs?is a valuable and fresh experience of a novel that has lost none of its relevance or satirical bite."@en

  • "L'interzone, un territoire qui ne figure sur aucune carte, situé quelque part entre New York et Tanger, dédale infini de rues semblable aux méandres du cerveau d'un drogué. Un lieu fantomatique, où se réfugie William Lee après avoir accidentellement tué sa femme."

  • "Après avoir accidentellement tué sa femme, William Lee se réfugie dans l'Interzone. Ce lieu impossible à localiser se situe entre réel et imaginaire, entre veille et rêve, entre lucidité et hallucination et traduit l'état hypnotique consécutif à la prise de drogues. Le narrateur conduit le lecteur dans le labyrinthe du cerveau humain à travers le récit de l'expérimentation hallucinogène.le roman est accompagné du DVD du film de David Cronenberg."
