William S. Burroughs' Life In London

William S. Burroughs' Life In London

The capital's chronicler of the counterculture BARRY MILES in conversation on the London life of WILLIAM S. BURROUGHS.

During the years 1967-1974,  William Burroughs lived quietly in Earls Court and St James where he adopted the dress and style of an English gentleman as the latest incarnation of his L'Ombre Invisible persona.

Miles tells of how he first heard of Burroughs, how they met and about the beat writer, artist and provocateur's time in the city.
