Anthony
Burgess's most famous novel, thanks largely to Stanley Kubrick's
infamous 1971 cult film adaptation. The novel, written in a
complicated language, sees fifteen-year-old Alex and his three
friends start an evening's mayhem by hitting an old man, tearing
up his books and stripping him of money and clothes. Because
of his delinquent excesses, Alex is jailed and made subject
to "Ludovico's Technique", a chilling experiment in reclamation
treatment.

Consisting
of 'Time for a Tiger' (1956), 'The Enemy in the Blanket' (1958)
and 'Beds in the East (1959)', this famous trilogy dissects
with brilliant wit the racial and social prejudices of post-war
Malaya during the chaotic upheaval of Independence. With penetrating
insight and through a succession of wonderfully colourful characters,
Anthony Burgess delineates the conflict, comedy and confusion
arising from the enforced mingling of cultures.
