Autoportrait
My 1968 passport photograph shows a meaty confident cattle-broker with a biblical nose, sly eyes, and the slack mouth of one who is evidently drunk. The new one (taken, admittedly, at nine on a crapulous autumn morning in the basement studio of a store on Regent Street) is of a victim-haunted murderer-at-large, the lips thin and pursed, cheeks sunken, eyes bagged - old, certainly old. "This passport expires," says Page 2, "October 16, 1988." Its holder will, I think, have expired some time before then. A ghastly thought, that this should be one's last passport. What strikes me particularly, apart from the horrid evidence of age, is that the upper lip has, in the last ten years, grown more simian, more Irish. My Italian wife, fighting to prevent my paying German and French tax on my literary earnings, has become interested in my Irish ancestry. If I can provide evidence that I really had a grandmother called Mary Ann Finnegan, and that she was born in the county of Tipperary, I may be able to get an Irish passport and invoke those reciprocal fiscal arrangements that will keep the French and German tax hounds off. So, I am turning into an Irishman. My son, who is Anglo-Italian, has revolted against the French culture pumped into him in Monaco and has decided that he is Scots. He goes around the rues and boulevards in a kilt and sporran. Whatever my old age is to be, it seems likely to stress the Celt in me, and hence him, and diminish the Anglo-Saxon.

Burgess Anthony
A Dead Man in Deptford (Burgess, Anthony) List Price: Price: You Save:
Description
With A Dead Man in Deptford, Burgess concluded his literary career to overwhelming acclaim for his re-creation of the Elizabethan poet Christopher Marlowe. In lavish, pitch-perfect, and supple, readable prose, Burgess matches his splendid Shakespeare novel, Nothing Like the Sun. The whole world of Elizabethan England-from the intrigues of the courtroom, through the violent streets of London, to the glory of the theater-comes alive in this joyous celebration of the life of Christopher Marlowe, murdered in suspicious circumstances in a tavern brawl in Deptford more than four hundred years ago.
Customer Reviews
Well worth it to immerse into Marlowe's world Meticulously researched and fulfilling Burgess's quest to write a novel on Christopher Marlowe (upon whom he had written his university thesis while the Luftwaffe created a new meaning to Dr. Faustus's visions of hell), this novel offers a compelling, intriguing and intricate examination into the enigma that is Kit Marlowe.

NOVELIST AS COMPOSER
The life and times of Anthony Burgess,
by TESS CREBBIN
Today marks the eleventh anniversary of the death of Anthony Burgess, the British writer, linguist, poet, critic and composer. Although Burgess remains best known for his novels ( Earthly Powers A Clockwork Orange Kingdom of the Wicked etc) he was also an extremely talented and prolific composer and some of his works have been described as very Elgarian
Aside from writings by Burgess himself, especially This Man and Music , no book-length research has been published thus far about the man and his music but this will soon change with the arrival of a new book from an Ivy League music department. Paul Phillips of Brown University has been working for several years on the first comprehensive examination of Burgess as composer. The book, which is near completion, is titled A Clockwork Counterpoint: The Music and Literature of Anthony Burgess and scheduled for publication in 2005 by Manchester University Press. Burgess's first love was music and the Manchester-born scribe did not plan on becoming a writer but aspired instead to being a composer. For this, he had all the talent if not the luck. Greatly influenced by his parents his mother was a singer and his father a pianist Burgess wrote his first symphony at age eighteen and continued to compose throughout his life. Now, thanks to Professor Phillips, it will soon be possible to learn more about the musical life of Burgess. Phillips's quest began after he read Burgess's obituary in

    Did you know?
    He took up writing to provide security for his widow-to-be when he was diagnosed with a terminal illness - and went on to produce an embarrassment of novels, criticism, symphonies and scripts.
    Critical verdict
    Burgess saw writing very much as a trade, accepting Samuel Johnson's dictum that only a fool ever wrote, except for money; he considered that his reputation for readability over brilliance stemmed from his prolific dabbling, encompassing reviewing, criticism, history, poetry, librettos and symphonies as well as novels (his oeuvre includes a coffee-table history of sleep, And So To Bed). As he said, "The trouble began with Forster. After him it was considered ungentlemanly to write more than five or six novels." He will always be most famous for a Kubrick-coloured perception of A Clockwork Orange's ultraviolence, though William Burroughs, another linguistic experimenter, said of the novel: "I do not know of any other writer who has done as much with language as Mr Burgess has done here.

The all-Burgess concert will showcase several pieces for solo piano, chamber ensemble and voice, performed by professional musicians from Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Paul Phillips, director of orchestras and chamber music at Brown, has organized the concert, which is free to the public. "Most people know Anthony Burgess as a British novelist and essayist," Phillips said, "but he was also a very gifted composer who wrote a vast amount of music of all types, including orchestral, ballet and chamber music compositions."
