I saw an old Spanish translation of nova express in a second hand book shop a while back (in the pulp sci-fi section appropriately enough) should have bought it. How would you go about translating something like that?

"Blah blah blah, sabor metállico de los ejaculaciónes de los adolescentes del Venús, blah blah blah", piece of piss if you ask me.

 

[version]

Every time I meet William Burroughs, I feel I'm in the presence of a feisty corpse. As a living person he seems rather bored. I asked him if he would go to the moon. "Of course," he replied. "I'd go anywhere; I'd leave the solar system if they came to get me in a flying saucer." "Even if there is no coming back?" I asked. He looked at me. "Why come back?"
— Sylvère Lotringer
