Despite his disingenuous claims, Anthony Burgess was an enormously prolific journalist. During his life he published two substantial collections of journalism, Urgent Copy (1968) and Homage to Qwert Yuiop (1986); a posthumous collection of occasional essays, One Man's Chorus, was published in 1998. These collections are now out of print, and Burgess's journalism, a key element of his oeuvre, and an example to a declining modern reviewer, has fallen into neglect. 'The Ink Trade' is a brilliant new selection of his reviews and articles, some savage, some crucial in establishing new writers, new tastes and trends.
