A Clockwork Orange

3 weeks ago 16

Wow, just finished reading the book and it was incredible.

I haven't watched the movie prior to that and had no idea what is it about but despite some opinions I've heard before calling it overrated I was left very positively surprised. I'm not gonna do a full review as there certainly are many in this reddit but I'd love to read others opinions about the book.

What did you think of the Nadsat? I've read it in Bulgarian and at times I didn't even notice the difference but overall it wasn't hard to grasp. Was the experience different in English?

Also I find it very interesting that Anthony Burgess' first wife died in a similar scenario to F. Alexander's wife in the book. What do you think about this detail? Are there some other interesting facts about the book
