The Exterminator by William Burroughs and Brion Gysin
San Francisco; Auerhahn. 1st, 1960. Near Fine.
An early collaborative work of these two inventors of the so-called ‘cut up’, whereby sections of existing text are cut into pieces and reconstituted to form something new. Includes cover and illustrations by Gysin, his ‘calligraphies’, again a form of automatic mark making. Scarce in this condition.
