I love Anthony Burgess but unfortunately I am running out of fiction works by Burgess that I have not read. My favorite books by him are probably One Hand Clapping, The Wanting Seed. and Tremor of Intent. His writing is somewhat complex but vivid and poetic. I have also read/enjoyed all of Orwell and Bradbury's books.
I find all three of them to have intriguing writing styles that fascinate me.
Can anyone suggest a good book or author for me?

Dr Andrew Biswell is an awesome dude and my friend was lucky enough to have him as his dissertation supervisor a few years back at Manchester Metropolitan University. Biswell is also a director of the International Anthony Burgess Foundation based in Manchester. Check out their website:

Have you read A Clockwork Orange?
For other writers, how about Graham Greene and Evelyn Waugh?
Have you read M/F by Burgess? You probably have. I liked it. I plan to read Earthly Powers at some point.
A Clockwork Orange is a must read. The Wanting Seed was a good novel. I have not read the others you mentioned.
