Books by author: Anthony Burgess

The Wanting Seed describes a dystopia in which the world is plagued by over-population. The writing style reminds me quite strongly of Philip K. Dick, sprinkled with Burgess's immense vocabulary, which sends me running to my desktop dictionary every few pages (I think Burgess overdoes it with obscure words, taking away from otherwise decent writing). I'd recommend this, but only to those who have already read and enjoyed 1984, Brave New World, Fahrenheit 451 and A Clockwork Orange.
