Description from the seller
Ah Pook is here and other texts : The Book of Breeathing Electronic Revolution
John Calder, London 1979, First edition, 157 pages. Orig. boards in dust wrappers.
Wrapper and cover very good but with some discoloration spine and left corner (see piuctyres)
Ah Pook Is Here refers to a long-running and ultimately unfinished collaboration between American author William S. Burroughs and British artist Malcolm Mc Neill. The project spanned the late 1960s to the mid-1970s. Mc Neill and Burroughs collaborated closely for about seven years, primarily in London and New York.
Featuring Burroughs’ signature themes — death, control, Mayan mythology, dystopian science fiction — Ah Pook Is Here is a surreal, satirical, and nightmarish allegory about power, control, and the manipulation of time and death, told through the rise and fall of a media tycoon, John Stanley Hart. It's both a dystopian allegory and a metaphysical prophecy — Burroughs’s dark vision of what happens when we try to master what cannot be mastered.
