Sick Burn Cut is the best pop-out cut-up novel I've ever rea

A novel for the millenium, Sick Burn Cut takes us back to pre-Microsoft Seattle, the days of Guns 'n Roses. Mary, a man in a dress, captivates and activates a small group of compatriat guerrilla drag queens for whom mere survival is a matter of survival. They take on the Mall Rats and the Dictators, feuding drug lords and gangs - Mary and her companion, Sayid Huysayn. Meanwhile a group of highschool kids in Spokane Washington form a cult of the Divine Virgin Mary. The two Mary's, who are never conscious of each other's existence, begin the spin a web of intrigue with the promise of great meaning lying behind the banality of suburban discontent. I was having a really bad summer, 'til I read this book!!! Deran Ludd is William Burrough's grandson. Which is not to say that Sick Burn Cut is Burroughs redux. Ludd takes the sensibility and tosses it into a 90's context Burroughs could barely have handled ('cuz he was too old).
