✦ Synopsis


Set in a not-so-distant future society that has a culture of extreme youth violence, 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. β€œA Clockwork Orange” is a frightening fable about good and evil, and the meaning of human freedom. When the state undertakes to reform Alexβ€”to β€œredeem” himβ€”the novel asks, β€œAt what cost?”
