Ghost of Chance

Ghost of Chance is an adventure novella set in the jungle of Madagascar and filled with the obsessions that mark the work of the man whom Norman Mailer once called, "the only American writer possessed by genius." While tripping through the author's trademark concerns—drugs, paranoia, and lemurs, this short novel tells an important story about environmental devastation in a way that only Burroughs can tell it.
