William Burroughs - The oportunity for another step on his life

William slowly got more and more dissatisfied with London even though he could take drug rehabilitation programs as often as he pleased. A major problem was that London's pub and restaurant hours didn't fit with Wiliam's lifestyle, and although he had a number of friends, he didn't see them all that often. But pure inertia kept him in England until he got a letter from Allen Ginsberg asking him to come teach a writing course at the City College of New York.
