The Adding Machine - Collected Essays.

London, John Calder 1985. Very Good. This is the paperback FIRST EDITION of Burroughs only collection of 43 splendid essays including the titles : Remembering Jack Kerouac, Beckett And Proust and On Freud And The Unconscious to name but a few. William S. Burroughs was the voice of a Beatnik generation and beyond. Presumably, this book earned its title from the fact that Burroughs father was the inventor of the original abacus adding machine! All of the 201 pages remain in clean, presentable condition with no inscriptions.The front of the cover shows the author in a typically deadpan pose saluting possibly his literary public against a backdrop of the American flag. Minimal wear to the paperback cover edges otherwise this is a nice, tidy book throughout.

BURROUGHS, WILLIAM S:

Ali's Smile. Book and Record.

Brighton: Unicorn Books, 1971. Hardback. First Edition. No dustwrapper, as issued. Number 35 of an edition of 99 signed by Burroughs. The book is in very good condition throughout, but does have small, faint moisture spots to the front and back covers. The front free end paper has a very slight wrinkle. The cover has no bumps and the internal pages are very good. This comes with the very rare vinyl recording of Burroughs reading a draft of the text: the recording is all on one side, playing at 33 rpm, has a plain white label on this side with UB LP I A S/S printed on the runout grooves. The other side has a plain black label, and has test noises etc, playing at 78rpm. The record is in good condition,comes in a white inner sleeve, in a plain white aged card cover. Book and box come together in a battered cardboard postage pack. In 'Collecting William Burroughs' , Eric Shoaf noted that there were probably no more than fifty book and record sets out of the 99 intended for distribution. The book and record rarely appear together.
