'I'm working on a novel intended to express the feel of England in
Edward III's time ... The fourteenth century of my novel will be
mainly evoked in terms of smell and visceral feelings, and it will
carry an undertone of general disgust rather than hey-nonny
nostalgia' - Anthony Burgess, 1973 The Black Prince is a brutal
historical tale of chivalry, religious belief, obsession, siege and
bloody warfare. From disorientating depictions of medieval battles
to court intrigues and betrayals, the campaigns of Edward, the
Black Prince, are brought to vivid life. This rambunctious book,
based on a completed screenplay by Anthony Burgess, showcases Adam
Roberts in complete control of the novel as a way of making us look
at history with fresh eyes, all while staying true to the
linguistic pyrotechnics and narrative verve of Burgess's best work.
