A vicious 15-year-old droog is the central character of this 1963 classic. In Anthony Burgess' nightmare vision of the future, where the criminals take over after dark, the story is told by the central character, Alex, who talks in a brutal, invented slang that brilliantly renders his and his friends' social pathology.
A Clockwork Orange is a frightening fable about good and evil, and the meaning of human freedom. When the state undertakes to reform Alex to redeem him, the novel asks, At what cost?
This edition includes the controversial last chapter not published in the first edition, as well as Burgess' introduction, A Clockwork Orange Resucked.
