330 .. $a Obscenity & the Arts is the first new work from Anthony Burgess in over twenty years.
The story of his struggle with censorship, religious conservatism and a vengeful government
on the island of Malta between 1968 & 1974 has never been told before. Renowned authors
Germaine Greer (The Female Eunuch and The Whole Woman) and Andrew Biswell (The Real
Life of Anthony Burgess) provide newly commissioned essays on the wider themes provoked
by Burgess's difficulties in Malta which still resonate today: how to define and discern
obscenity and pornography, and the recurring problem of state censorship. The fulcrum
of the work is a full transcript of Burgess's lecture at the University of Malta in
1970 previously printed as a short-run pamphlet from the Malta Library Association
in 1973 but, made available here to an international readership for the first time.
The book also incorporates previously unseen archive documentation and photography
(including images taken by the author himself) which emphasise Burgess's extraordinary
term in Lija
