Chris Kelso - Burroughs and Scotland: Dethroning the Ancients: The Commitment of Exile

<p>In Burroughs and Scotland, Chris Kelso explores the relationship between William S. Burroughs (author of Naked Lunch, Junkie, and The Soft Machine) and a country very much attuned to the Beat author’s provocative, transgressive sci-fi style of literature. Kelso investigates why Burroughs was drawn to Scotland, why Scotland was drawn to Burroughs, and what exactly the author got up to during his various visits to Edinburgh.</p> <p>Chris Kelso is a British Fantasy Award-nominated genre writer, illustrator, editor, screenwriter, and journalist. His work has been translated into French, Spanish and Swedish. He is the 2 times winner of the Ginger Nuts of Horror Novel of the Year<strong> </strong>( in 2016 for Unger House Radicals’ and&nbsp; 2017 for ‘Shrapnel Apartments).</p> <p>--<a href="https://cash.app/$wakeisland666">cash.app/$wakeisland666&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</a></p> <p>--Venmo: @wake-island666&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Theme music by Joseph E.
