A Clockwork Orange


A Clockwork Orange
Anthony Burgess
I didn't read this in school nor did I see the Stanley Kubrick film version.
I couldn't get past the slang. All the glazzies, tolchocks,ptitsas and golosses and so on were too distracting for my taste.
I did find the method of making someone "sane" intriguing. I wonder if it would really work?
Sadly, I didn't enjoy this modern day classic as much as I had hoped.
I rate this book ***
