Rare Signed Copy by Victor Bockris

Rare signed copy, inscribed by Victor Bockris on the free endpaper in fine white marker. 'Victor Bockris / NYC. Sept. 2017'. In the bottom right corner, there's a line drawing by Victor Bockris of a running, horned figure. 

Fine Condition Linen-Wrapped Paperback

A fine copy: clean, tight, and solid, with no creases or marks and a straight, firm spine. The interior is fresh and untouched. There is a single loose thread on the right hand side of the front cover (see picture #3), typical of the linen wrap; otherwise excellent. As with many cloth-covered paperbacks, very slight natural warping may occur, but this copy remains well preserved.

William S. Burroughs and the New York Underground

Burroughs Reloaded offers an intimate glimpse into the artistic universe of New York in the 1970s and 1980s, featuring many previously unpublished photographs of William S. Burroughs and his circle, taken at his Manhattan residence, “The Bunker” (333 Bowery). Subjects include Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Allen Ginsberg, Keith Haring, Debbie Harry, Patti Smith, Lou and Sylvia Reed, Mick Jagger, Brion Gysin, Joe Strummer, John Giorno, and others.

Victor Bockris and the Beat–Warhol–Punk Axis

Sometimes described as a chronicler of the New York underground of the 1970s and 80s, Victor Bockris is an expert on the Beat-Warhol-Punk axis. A writer and photographer, he was also a close friend of Burroughs and Warhol.
