… ‘Don’t read Clockwork Orange – it’s a foul farrago,’ wrote Burgess. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

Andrew Biswell, Burgess’s biographer and the foundation’s director, said of the unpublished material: “What excites me is the range and variety of his work, ranging from epic poetry to occasional verses, political, satirical… We can see Burgess working in all the available poetic forms and styles.”
