First edition, first impression; 8vo; publisher's green wrappers printed in black; with the Gysin-designed dust jacket, a lovely copy in the very lightly rubbed and minutely tanned dust jacket with minor production crease to the rear panel. An exceptional copy of Burroughs masterpiece, one of the triumphs of the Beat movement. Not common in this condition.

The Naked Lunch (sometimes referred to as Naked Lunch) is a novel by American writer William S. Burroughs. The book is structured as a series of loosely connected vignettes, following the shifting and hallucinatory perspectives of a junkie protagonist.
