A Clockwork Orange

A Clockwork Orange" is a literary paradox of the 20th century. Continuing the futuristic traditions in literature and experimenting with the language spoken by the transitional generation of malltshipalltshikov and kisok "nadsatyh", Anthony Burgess creates a novel recognized as a classic of modern literature.

Smart, cruel, charismatic anti-hero Alex, the leader of a street gang, preaching violence as a high art of life, as a form of pleasure, falls into the iron grip of the latest state program for the re-education of criminals and becomes a victim of violence himself.

Can the world be saved from evil by depriving a person of the will to act and turning him into a "clockwork orange"?

This question is as relevant today as it was yesterday, and this question the author poses to the reader.
