Russell s purpose in writing these saucy tales is not merely to assemble a slush pile of tittle-tattle but also to establish a genealogy of inspiration and to demonstrate that sex is one of the pre-eminent spurs to creativity. Yet one can t entirely suppress the suspicion that Russell s art is a substitute for action and that these sex-crammed fictions are a displacement activity for a director who in his 80th year bears a powerful resemblance to Old Father Saturn and who himself may be just as randy as his priapic batonistas. --Spectator
Ken Russell is one of the most original, vibrant and groundbreaking film and television directors of the recent era. His finest films such as "Women in Love", "The Music Lovers", and "The Devils" are milestones in cinema history. Classical music is a passion of his and for the first time in these 'novel biographies' he focuses a literary rather than camera lens on the private lives of Beethoven, Brahms, Elgar, and Delius - with no holds barred!
