Marathon reading of William Burroughs’ ‘Naked Lunch’ at Beyond Baroque
- Share via
Even if you’ve already read William S. Burroughs’ heroin-cured masterpiece “Naked Lunch,” chances are it’s not easy to describe what happened in this stream-of-consciousness story of a junkie’s hellish journey to the Interzone. All the more reason to get reacquainted with Burroughs’ surreal world with this marathon reading that closes Beyond Baroque’s three-day celebration of the novel’s 50th anniversary. The story kicks off at noon and, appropriately, has no scheduled end time. 681 Venice Blvd., Venice. Sat. Free. (310) 822-3006, www.beyondbaroque.org.
