John Anthony Burgess Wilson (1917-93) was an industrious writer. He
published over fifty books, thousands of essays and numerous drafts
and fragments survive. He predicted many of the struggles and
challenges of his own and the following century. His most famous
book is A Clockwork Orange (1962), later adapted into a
controversial film by Stanley Kubrick. The linguistic innovations
of that novel, the strict formal devices used to contain them, and
its range of themes are all to be found too in Burgess's poetry, an
area of his work where he was at once most free and most
experimental. It is his least exposed and most complex and eloquent
area of achievement, now revealed at last in all its richness. His
flair for words, formal discipline, experimentalism, and fondness
for variousness mark every page.
