Or maybe that’s just me. My point is that more or less anyone can find something repulsive about Burroughs as a person. Anyone might be repelled by the fact that he killed his wife, even if it wasn’t premeditated murder. Homophobes might hate his queerness. People who think that junkies are scum would be repelled by the fact that he injected industrial quantities of heroin, even though much of his writing is animated by a caustic analysis of the economy of illegal drugs and compassion for the victims of drug abuse.
