English writer, screenwriter, and composer
Anthony Burgess was an English writer, screenwriter, and composer. He is known for work that crosses fiction and music, and for a career that joined literary invention with a strong interest in language and form. Burgess wrote novels, screenplays, and musical works, moving between different kinds of writing without losing a recognisable voice. His name is most often associated with fiction, but his range also included composition, which shaped the breadth of his public reputation.
