The second installment in Burroughs' cut-up style Nova trilogy.
In The Ticket That Exploded, William S.
Burroughs' grand ''cut-up'' trilogy that starts with The Soft Machine and continues through Nova Express reaches its climax as inspector Lee and the Nova Police engage the Nova Mob in a decisive battle for the planet.
Only Burroughs could make such a nightmare vision of scientists and combat troops, of ad men and con men whose deceitful language has spread like an incurable disease be at once so frightening and so enthralling.
