This, applies to all his later books

I liked Cities of the Red Night, Queer, Junky, Interzone and The Place of Dead Roads.

Junky is alright. It's subject matter is pretty interesting but the writing style is nothing special.

I wrote an essay for a class on the red night trilogy about how burroughs uses word clusters to assault the readers senses, therefore transforming language into a tool or mechanism to be used for violence
