Tuesday 22/2/22 is a very 'two' sort of day. The title of Anthony Burgess's 22nd novel has the same word 2wice, and just 2 letters. The book is structured in 2 parts, and focusses on 2 poets Keats and Belli, the latter of whom wrote over 2,200 blasphemous sonnets. Happy twos-day.
A Clockwork Orange: A Play with Music. A Long Trip to Teatime (illustrated by Fulvio Testa). A Mouthful of Air: Language and Languages, Especially English. A Vision of Battlements (now available as an Irwell Edition).
"His sonatas and symphonies were dramas, storm and stress, revelations of personal struggle and triumph," Anthony Burgess said of Beethoven.
