  • "Alex ist Anführer einer Londoner Jugendbande und begeisterter Beethoven-Fan. Seine Gang lebt in einem trostlosen Vorort und benutzt eine eigenwillige Sprache, einen von russischen Brocken durchsetzten Slang. Ihr Leben dreht sich um Schlägereien mit anderen Gangs, Raubüberfälle und Vergewaltigungen. Alex' Eltern kriegen ihn nicht in den Griff, denn er hat keinerlei Respekt vor ihnen. Aber auch Alex' Freunde sind mit ihrem Anführer nicht mehr zufrieden. Bei einem ihrer Raubzüge lassen sie ihn im Stich und die Polizei nimmt ihn fest. Wegen Mordes wird er zu einer langjährigen Haftstrafe verurteilt, bekommt aber eine letzte Chance: Ein neuartiges Experiment soll ihn zu einem guten Bürger umerziehen. Der grosse Roman von Anthony Burgess über Gut und Böse, über Freiheit und Zwang in neuer Übersetzung der ursprünglichen Fassung. Mit ergänzenden Texten zu Buch, Film und Theaterstück. Anthony Burgess 1917 in Manchester geboren, 1993 in London gestorben, komponierte, schrieb Libretti, Essays, Drehbücher, Sachbücher, Übersetzungen und ungefähr dreissig Romane, darunter "Der Fürst der Phantome" und "Enderby". Sein wohl bekanntestes Werk ist "Clockwork Orange", in Deutschland zuerst erschienen als "Die Uhrwerk-Orange", 1971 von Stanley Kubrick meisterhaft verfilmt."
