Anthony Burgess on the airwaves

Anthony Burgess on the airwaves

Liana Burgess would habitually tape as many of Anthony Burgess’s radio appearances as she could. Burgess was always happy to be interviewed, and took part in programmes for national and local broadcasters from all over the world. Listen here to segments from a long interview with a student radio station, WKCO (Ohio, USA) from 1980; an early-morning phone-in on LBC in 1978; and a discussion of Beethoven’s symphonies from 1990.
