Some cut-up photos from magazines, left. Calligraphy on Wardrobe closet Burroughs' adaptation of Brion Gysin's brushwork. Tangier Summer 1961. Bill's words above, 1988.

Jack Kerouac, Villa Mouneria Garden Wall, Tangier—he’d preceded me & Peter O. on Yugoslav freighter by a month to help Type Burroughs’ Interzone “word-board” manuscript assembled for Naked Lunch. Jack left for Paris a week and a half later, On the Road published earlier that year—he’d already written twelve books, Visions, Dreams, Blues, in the “Legend of Duluoz” series, up to Desolation Angels Part I, late 1957.
