Cities of the Red Night is a 1981 novel by American author William S. Burroughs. His first full-length novel since The Wild Boys (1971), it is part of his final trilogy of novels, known as The Red Night Trilogy, followed by The Place of Dead Roads (1983) and The Western Lands (1987). The plot involves a group of radical pirates who seek the freedom to live under the articles set out by Captain James Misson. In near present day, a parallel story follows a detective searching for a lost boy, abducted for use in a sexual ritual. The cities of the title mimic and parody real places, and Burroughs makes references to the United States, Mexico, and Morocco.

  • Města rudých nocí (v anglickém originále Cities of the Red Night) je román amerického spisovatele Williama Sewarda Burroughse z roku 1981. V češtině vyšel v roce 1999 v nakladatelství Volvox Globator v překladu Martina Šilara. Jde o první část trilogie, kterou dále tvoří knihy Místo slepých cest (1983) a Západní země (1987). Děj se odehrává v několika rovinách v rozmezí několika staletí. V první, odehrávající se v 18. století, popisuje život v pirátské kolonii (stejnému tématu se Burroughs věnuje i ve své pozdější knize Ohyzdný duch). Druhá, odehrávající se ve 20. století, sleduje soukromého detektiva, pátrajícího po ztraceném chlapci, který byl unesen za účelem využití v sexuálním rituálu. (cs)
