Olympia Press #73. Inside the title page it states: "Other works by William Burroughs published by Olympia Press: The Soft Machine , The Ticket that Exploded " (which led to the rumours that Akbar Del Piombo is actually William S.Burroughs).
A novella sequel to Who Pushed Paula , entitled I Have Come Back , was published together with another novella, A Crumbling Facade , in the omnibus volume The Traveller's Companion [later re-issued as The Double-Bellied Companion ] published by Olympia Press.
Later, The Double-Bellied Companion was incorporated with Paula the Piquôse and Duke Cosimo [previously published as Cosimo's Wife or The Vengeance of a Duke ] in: The Fetish Crowd , an omnibus edition published in France. Printed by Imprimerie Croutzet, Paris.

"OK. First read Who Pushed Paula , then The Fetish Crowd . And if you want to go far over the edge, read The House in Lodz as an aftermath. Please note: this is morally humouress material." --Henry W.Targowski.

Highly recommended.
