We Think the World of You by JR Ackerley. Really something.

i haven't read RWS altho i saw and mostly enjoyed the movie. i have read a bit of burroughs beside, though, and he is stellar.

Some other books of his:
Sellevision
Possible Side-Effects(on my to-read list)

I read "Openly Bob" by Bob Smith quite a few years ago and found the book quite cute and poignant. I am about to read the follow-up "Way to go Smith", but I can definitely recommend "Openly Bob".

I would like to suggest "The Fran Lebowitz Reader", a series of essays that are absolutely devastatingly funny.
