Review:
"Called a novel, the book is actually an idiosyncratic biography of the great Elizabethan dramatist Christopher Marlowe...."
Brooke Allen, Wall Street Journal, 04/28/1995
Review:"Anthony Burgess, who died in November 1993 shortly after finishing this, his final work, is not the first novelist to put forth a theory about Marlowe's death, but 'A Dead Man in Deptford' is certainly among the most entertaining of these speculations. Burgess's legendary intoxication with language and wordplay is very much in evidence as he evokes the raw, freewheeling spirit of the Elizabethan age. The author's love of literary puzzles is also apparent in his choice of narrator, a small-time actor whose identity can be ascertained only by reference to the Shakespeare First Folio of 1623."
Nicholas Basbanes, New York Times Book Review, 05/28/1995
