Written in 1991 to commemorate the bicentennial of Mozart's death,
Burgess's novella-length piece is a compendium of themes, genres
and even art-forms revolving around the one central preoccupation
of the entire Burgess oeuvre: the reconcilability of life and art.
This is a kaleidoscope of a book, which stretches even the bounds
of even Anthony Burgess's fiction in an attempt to understand
Mozart through celestial dialogue, an opera libretto, and fragments
of a film script. As gracefully witty as it is daringly
experimental, Mozart and the Wolf Gang is one of Burgess's late,
great works, often overlooked due to its experimental form, which
nevertheless remains accessible, entertaining and yet refreshingly
original to this day. This new critical edition with analysis from
noted musicologist and a first-class literary critic Alan Shockley
enables this work's significance to be assessed by a new generation
of readers and scholars. -- .
