«Yonqui» is the novel by William S. Burroughs, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
William Lee, the author's alter ego, recounts his descent into drug addiction: the craving for the next dose, the fix, the peculiar sexuality and the strange bonds formed in that milieu. Published in 1953 under a pseudonym, this unflinching chronicle shows Burroughs's rebellion against society and anticipates all his later work.
Part of Anagrama's Compactos collection (number 211). Original title: «Junky»; translation by Martín Lendínez and Francesc Roca.
For readers of the Beat Generation and twentieth-century American fiction; Burroughs inspired writers, musicians, painters and filmmakers.
Benjamin Samuel Williams, English orchidologist and nurseryman in London, known mainly for his horticultural notes on orchids in publications such as The Orchid Grower's Manual, Select Orchidaceous Plants and The Orchid Album.
