Publisher's Summary
In this 1962 classic, a novelistic exploration of modern crime and punishment, Alex is the 15-year-old leader of his gang of "droogs" thriving in the ultraviolent future, as prophetically imagined by Burgess. Speaking a bizarre Russian-derived slang, Alex and his friends freely pillage and slash their way across a nightmarish urban landscape until Alex is captured by the judicial arm of the state. He then becomes their prized guinea pig in a scientific program to completely "redeem" him for society.
If we had the power of absolute criminal reform, what, the novel asks, would this mean for our ideals of freedom and society? This edition reinstates the final chapter missing from Kubrick's film, in which Alex is on the verge of starting a family as he reflects on - and completely rejects - his adolescent nastiness. It also includes Burgess's introduction "A Clockwork Orange Resucked".

Why you should never only trust a movie.
This is surprising. and the agitation of the author for skipping the last chapter in all american publications and the movie.
I do not know what I think of this book. The violence never really bothered me. But the methods States so called call reforms are shady to say the least. And it isn't even as simple as a choice. I can choose the right thing. But do I want to?
What is it going to be then, eh?
