Ninety-Nine Novels: The Best in English since 1939 – A Personal Choice is an essay by British writer Anthony Burgess, published by Allison & Busby in 1984. It covers a 44-year span between 1939 and 1983. Burgess was a prolific reader, in his early career reviewing more than 350 novels in just over two years for The Yorkshire Post. In the course of his career he wrote more than 30 novels. The list represents his choices; in an interview with Don Swaim,[1] Burgess revealed that the book was originally commissioned by a Nigerian publishing company and written in two weeks.
