In conversation in the Burroughs & Associates Facebook group, Marlen Stahl shared:
 
"This book was published by french poet (and publisher) Lucien Suel (so the acronym SUEL - Station Underground...) . It is an anthology of texts that were first published in 2 french magazines from the 70's, The Starscrewer (led by Lucien) and Sphinx (led by a guy whose nickmane was "Horus" at that time). Lucien sold, I would say, 100-200 of this book. And then, in 2001, as a teacher in a local university, I asked the students to buy this book so we could study it - Lucien had to print back 30-40 books. It's a great book, with interesting texts from the 70's.
