About Anthony Burgess: Born 25th February 1917, Anthony Burgess, who will always be remembered for his eighth book, The Clockwork orange, was born Jack Wilson in a small house in Harpurhey, the son of a bookkeeper and part-time pianist, and the musician/dancer he met at the Ardwick Empire. When he was a baby he was found lying in his cot with his mother and sister dead beside him, both victims of Spanish flu. Invalided at home in 1959 with a terminal illness, he became a professional writer in the hope that in his final year he would provide some security for his wife. The medical diagnosis was wrong, and Burgess stayed with his new carreer, writing more than 30 novels and other books. This prolific and often controversial writer once created a storm when he returned to his native city and said: "As a piece of civic planning, or rather unplanning, I think it's terrible."

Advertise January 2005 Damien Weaver fiction Tremor of Intent by Anthony Burgess What is it that leads high-brow, high-concept authors to dabble in genre? Are their efforts a populist gesture or simple overreaching? Are they satisfying their own curiosity or paying loving tribute to a form they admire? Whatever this dire impulse, the impulse that leads awesome authors like Martin Amis to write irredeemable crap like Night Train , it took hold of the prolific Anthony Burgess long enough to provoke The Tremor of Intent , a spy novel written by someone who revolutionized sci-fi but clearly fancies himself above spy novels. Tremor of Intent centers around Denis Hillier, an English spy carrying out one last mission before retirement. He's disguised as a typewriter technician on holiday and is to find and kidnap a fellow Englishman named Roper, a scientist who's defected to the USSR and will be attending a conference in Yugoslavia. Hillier, though he admits to "a life ruled by gluttony and satyriasis," is a likeable character, world-weary and introspective, a decent man and a loyal agent of the Crown. His failures as a spy everyone seems to be onto him as soon as they meet him give him a sweet hangdog quality, though it's hard to imagine how's Hillier's lasted as long as he has in the brutal cold-war climate of Eastern Europe. Hillier and Roper knew each other from early childhood, which we learn by means of a flashback to Roper the precocious schoolboy, flummoxing his instructors with a byzantine hopscotch argument splicing molecular science into Biblical numerology, a wild, intellectual dick-slapping riff on the atomic composition of the eucharist which may be titillatingly blasphemous for recovering Catholics or substantively intriguing to those of scientific bent but struck this reviewer as shoehorned in, a bravura demonstration of cleverness unrelated to the novel at large. This flashback is the first of many abrupt changes in narrative voice, tonal inconsistencies so jarring that a reader ends up noticing the book's texture more than its text. The opening of

a Cross-centered blog Home a Cross-centered blog Confess your sins to one another (part 5) I am grateful for my friend Travis who is working diligently to produce an electronic copy of the great (and forgotten) Puritan book: Anthony Burgess Spiritual Refining, part 2 . To commemorate his progress I wanted to post one of the many quotes that stand out in this priceless work. One especially fits in our series of learning to confess sins to one another. This excerpt shows why, when we look for sermons to tickle our ears, we have thus failed to understand the purpose of the Word and preaching. The same is true of friendships. Burgess writes, “That one main end of the Word of God, and preaching, is to discover this deceitful heart. It’s to make us know ourselves; compared therefore to a glass, that will show a deformed man all his unloveliness, and this is a glass, not to the face but the heart; all those hidden and unknown lusts may there be brought to light. And the Ministry that is compared to light; as the sunbeams discover those many thousands of motes in the air

The word "slang" is vague and its etymology obscure. It suggests the slinging of odd stones or dollops of mud at the windows of the stately home of linguistic decorum.

It is not even possible to legislate for a language, to say what is right and what is wrong (questions of intelligibility are a different matter). If it is wrong to say 'you was,' then the educated men of the eighteenth century were wrong. If it is sluttish to drop one's aitches, the Queen Elizabeth I was a slut.
