There is a tailor shop on Tianjundian Xiang jundian Xiang, near Laowai Paradise and Yunnan U. I don't know its quality. There are two tailor shops on Jianshe Lu, across the street from Normal U., a few steps uphill from the raileay tracks. I use the one closer to the tracks for shirts and pants. I'm satisfied but I'm not interested in fashion, just basic clothing. Ph no: 150 8704 8808. I have no opinion about the next shop, the Yunnan Fashion Tailors.
Does anyone know the new, as of July 2016, address of Paul's Shop? The clerk told me a month ago that it would be on Jianshe Lu, across from the universities. That's a large area, though. Anyone know a more precise address?
The text of Naked Lunch is in demonoid.ph & probably other torrent sites. Also an audiobook version read by Burroughs himself. He does have a distinctive voice & reading style.
