Thanks, Sara. I guess this edition's additional resources will be very useful. There's so much to be said about A Clockwork Orange.


Nigeyb This is the edition that I always think of when I think of A Clockwork Orange, I used to see it everywhere in the 1970s, including my own bookshelf. It’s a Penguin edition...

This is the edition I am reading...

A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess

The introduction written by Burgess is interesting (despite him sounding like a jerk). However, there are no footnotes, which I feel it is a bit disappointing...
