A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess - 1982

In a near-future dystopia, teenage Alex and his gang of "droogs" revel in ultra-violence and "a bit of the old ultra-violence." But when the State captures the young thug, they aim to cure him—through a sinister form of psychological conditioning that questions the very nature of free will. Told in a brilliantly inventive slang, Anthony Burgess' "A Clockwork Orange" is a disturbing, thought-provoking exploration of good and evil, choice and consequence. This landmark work challenges readers to grapple with profound moral dilemmas while navigating a world both familiar and nightmarishly alien. Prepare for a linguistic tour de force that will leave you pondering the essence of humanity long after you've turned the final page! - A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess Published 1982, William Heinemann / The Thetford Press, Norfolk Hardcover.
