内容説明
My Education is Burroughs's last novel, first published two years before his death in 1997. It is a book of dreams, collected over several decades and as close to a memoir as we will see. The dreams cover themes from the mundane and ordinary - conversations with his friends Allen Ginsberg or Ian Sommerville, feeding his cats, procuring drugs or sex - to the erotic, bizarre and visionary. Always a rich source of imagery in Burroughs's own fiction, in this book dreams become a direct and powerful force in themselves.

内容（「BOOK」データベースより）
バロウズの遺作長編。本書は、断片的に書かれてきたものを、とりまきたちが集めて編集したものである。これまで、ノスタルジックな形以外ではあまり触れられなかった家族との関係(特に老いてからの父母や兄との関係)、先立たれた息子に対する感情が、かなりストレートに出ているし、昔の恋人たちに関する記述も無防備なまでにはっきりしている。その意味で、本書はバロウズの諸作の中でもっとも内省的かつ自伝的要素の強いものとなっている。

いまさらですが、バロウズという人物に関心がなければ読んでもさっぱりつまらんでしょう。一言でいうとバロウズ自身の夢の集積本であると思われます。つまり、彼の「夢日記」にメモってある短編や記憶をマリワナなどを折り込んだか、あるいはキメながら過去の記憶を回想している、そういった内容だと思います。だから、なにかすごく教育的なことを言っている、などということでもないと思います。いや、ある意味では教育的ではあるのかな。でもそれは強制的なものでなくむしろ内省的。で、自己の回想シーンや周辺知人の事柄の描写を空想的に描いたものです。まさに夢の書。ただ、バロウズは夢理論においてはユングよりもフロイトの方に関心があったのだなと、改めて認識させられます。また、ところどころみられるのはカット・アップ（だと思う）。しかし、思えばそれも夢の断片かもしれません。そもそも夢もカット・アップもほとんど似たようなものか。

A True Book of Dreams
1997/7/31
形式:ハードカバー
The criticisms of this book commonly state that it is disjointed and detached. Finally, a book of dreams that doesn't pursue some interconnection of the dreams or a relation of them to reality. There are recurring themes, but as in the dreams every person has, they are recurring dreams, and they do not suppose a greater meaning than being dreams. This book let's your mind dream along with Burroughs. Some parts are detailed, and others are totally vague... so much like a dream, you feel a little hazy when you put it down..

A tourbook of the Land of the Dead
2003/6/6
形式:ペーパーバック
This really isn't a novel. It is much more than that. This is where Burroughs got so many of the images for his life time of work. You see, this is a tour book of The Land of the Dead, or as he also called it, The Place of Dead Roads. While he subtitles this work _A Book of Dreams_ he is careful to point out that these are a very special sort of dream. They are dreams that are more real than waking life. Indeed, the author speculates if the dreaming city isn't really his true home, his true life- far more real than Lawrence, Kansas.
You can't expect to read a book like this in the same way that you would read an ordinary book. You must unfocus your mind, in the same way that you must unfocus your eyes to truly SEE some abstract art. Only then will the images begin to flow and transport you. That is because this book is a conscious act of magic, as the old magician knew when he crafted it....
See if the Land of the Dead doesn't start to seem very familiar to you. I know I immediately recognised the place he was describing. It is a place where the dead, the sleeping, the magical travellers all meet. That is why the landscape and architecture are such a tangle, why there are no clear distinctions between public and private places. It is a mad, mixed, consensus "reality." That is also why flight is possible there. You see, in such a place gravity isn't a law- it is an opinion....

One of his best novels.
2002/8/10
形式:ペーパーバック
I think this was a very interesting concept to record 5 years worth of dreams and then put them into a book. Some of the images and characters Burroughs comes up with are so vivid and so realistic that when I read this I actually felt like I was with Burroughs during this subconcious journey.
I liked how he used his dreams as education, and how he realized the importance of his dreams; a very Freudian quality. I think that this book represented finally coming to terms with your past, and accepting vicissitude (or change) that others tend to shy away from. This book is a very important addition to Burroughs' extensive body of work, and undoubtedly one of his best books. And often times it's overlooked because it's in the shadow of the Naked Lunch and the Soft Machine.
