A drifting addict narrates a hallucinatory sprawl of grotesque cities, doctors and bureaucrats where control itself is the drug, and cause and effect stop applying, in scenes that could be read in any order.

I can feel the heat closing in, feel them out there making their moves, setting up their devil doll stool pigeons.
Naked Lunch, William S. Burroughs
