Napoleon Symphony


Napoleon Symphony
Napoleon Symphony by Anthony Burgess

Anthony Burgess draws on his love of music and history in this novel he called “elephantine fun†to write.

A grand and affectionate tragicomic symphony to Napoleon Bonaparte that teases and reweaves Napoleon’s life into a pattern borrowedâ€â€in liberty, equality, and fraternityâ€â€from Beethoven’s Third “Eroica†Symphony, in this rich, exciting, bawdy, and funny novel Anthony Burgess has pulled out all the stops for a virtuoso performance that is literary, historical, and musical.
