- Is it worse to be bad by choice, or be good by force?This novel is an amazing piece of literature. It centers around the dealings of a young man, approx. 15-16 years old, involved in gangs in the not too distant future. Alex, the sadistic protagonist, is a teenager who enjoys beating, stealing, and raping the innocent, until a tragic murder is on his hands and he's thrown in jail. While in jail, he defends himself from getting raped and accidentally kills his assailant. Because of this crime, Alex is forced into a radical new treatment which ... Read More

The source of one of the most controversial movies ever made, Anthony Burgess's 'A Clockwork Orange' is at once a profound social commentary and a linguistic innovation. The book came around 1962, written at a time when the author was ill and given one year to live (he went onto live another three decades); but it was not until Stanley Kubrick's visual adaptation to the big screen that the book gained it's notoriety.

- "Oh, it was gorgeosity and yumyumyum."This sentence from the second-to-last chapter of our modern Dante's journey through Hell sums up this book in many ways. Intellectually stimulating, violent, fun, beautiful, dark and open; you won't find a better dystopia.
The problems I tend to have with dark novels about possible futures are that the authors tend to be extremely proud of themselves, and this smugness can ruin a book--and also that the changes in society often seem too clever or silly for me to actually enjoy the story. ... Read More
