A Clockwork Orange

O Brothers, I genuinely did enjoy this book, even though you really had to just sit through the first 5 to 10 pages until you understood the slang thats used. Be warned: after you are done with the book, the slang sticks with you, I use some words unironically now. The language is probably the most interesting aspect of the book. I did here and there have to question my own morales but not more than with most other books. I did also very much like the world building, I just wished we got to know the world more than described, since we only know what we had to know in order to follow the story. But considering we followed our main character as a Narrator, that also made somewhat sense. Anyways, my droogs, O brothers, its worth to viddy at, at least once.

"What's it going to be then, eh?" Unglaublich gutes Buch. Musste es zwar für den Englischunterricht lesen um die mündliche Marura vorzubereiten, war aber extrem überrascht wie genial das Buch war. Die Sprache, die angesprochenen Themen, der morallose Hauptcharakter Alex - Genial. Und er war wie immer - "dressed in the height of nadsat fashion."

A very powerful piece of literatur. Engaging to read, timeless. There are sadly quite a few Alex' in this world.

hat mehr als 5 sterne verdient. sehr empfehlenswertes buch, nadsat, sehr interessant zum lesen.
