It inspired a movie masterpiece, invented its own lexicon, foretold a grim future and changed the literary landscape forever. Now, A Clockwork Orange, author Anthony Burgess' riveting and disturbing dystopian vision of youth gone wild, returns in this groundbreaking 50th Anniversary Edition. You'll rampage alongside Alex, the precocious young criminal who alternates bouts of rape and assault alongside his "droogs" with impassioned Beethoven listening sessions. When the government tries to stop his sociopathic ways for good, is the cure worse than the disease? Painstakingly restored from three different published editions to match Burgess' original intentions, this is A Clockwork Orange as it was meant to be experienced.
