Fully restored edition of Anthony Burgess' original text of A Clockwork Orange, with a glossary of the teen slang 'Nadsat', explanatory notes, pages from the original typescript, interviews, articles and reviews Edited by Andrew Biswell With a Foreword by Martin Amis 'It is a horrorshow story ...' Fifteen-year-old Alex likes lashings of ultraviolence. He and his gang of friends rob, kill and rape their way through a nightmarish future, until the State puts a stop to his riotous excesses. But what will his re-education mean? A dystopian horror, a black comedy, an exploration of choice, A Clockwork Orange is also a work of exuberant invention which created a new language for its characters. This critical edition restores the text of the novel as Anthony Burgess originally wrote it, and includes a glossary of the teen slang 'Nadsat', explanatory notes, pages from the original typescript, interviews, articles and reviews, shedding light on the enduring fascination of the novel's 'sweet and juicy criminality'. Anthony Burgess was born in Manchester in 1917 and educated at Xaverian College and Manchester University. He spent six years in the British Army before becoming a schoolmaster and colonial education officer in Malaya and Brunei. After the success of his Malayan Trilogy, he became a full-time writer in 1959. His books have been published all over the world, and they include The Complete Enderby, Nothing Like the Sun, Napoleon Symphony, Tremor of Intent, Earthly Powers and A Dead Man in Deptford. Anthony Burgess died in London in 1993. Andrew Biswell is the Professor of Modern Literature at Manchester Metropolitan University and the Director of the International Anthony Burgess Foundation. His publications include a biography, The Real Life of Anthony Burgess, which won the Portico Prize in 2006. He is currently editing the letters and short stories of Anthony Burgess.

John Anthony Burgess Wilson, FRSL ( 25 February 1917 – 22 November 1993), who published under the name Anthony Burgess, was an English writer and composer. Although Burgess was predominantly a comic writer, his dystopian satire A Clockwork Orange remains his best-known novel. In 1971, it was adapted into a highly controversial film by Stanley Kubrick, which Burgess said was chiefly responsible for the popularity of the book. Burgess produced numerous other novels, including the Enderby quartet, and Earthly Powers. He wrote librettos and screenplays, including for the 1977 TV mini-series Jesus of Nazareth. He worked as a literary critic for several publications, including The Observer and The Guardian, and wrote studies of classic writers, notably James Joyce. A versatile linguist, Burgess lectured in phonetics, and translated Cyrano de Bergerac, Oedipus Rex, and the opera Carmen, among others. Burgess also composed over 250 musical works; he considered himself as much a composer as an author, although he enjoyed considerably more success in writing

和布什的自传相比 这本好短 一直就不懂发条橙是什么意思 现在终于懂了 书中好多俄语单词稍微影响阅读 其他都不错 我看这本书看到的还是所谓伦理 社会价值取向 大众的价值观不一定是正确的价值观但一定是最轻松的

看完原著才知道原来电影把作者的立意完全扭曲了,电影里完全没有“a clockwork orange”的体现。nadsat slang实在蛋疼但也着实是有趣的语言。这个版本的封面很非凡,而且实在有原著的体现:the cold milky chai与通往成熟的思考和疑惑。

get a nadsat dictionary for the first 20 pages, and then you'll get used to it. The "happy ending" 最初被美版拿下,所以电影里也是没有的。最后一个章节确实让立意有了一个转向..

有趣的是,Burgess说在写发条橙的世界时,脑中想到的是Manchester, Leningrad, New York三个城市的混合

掌握权力的人大肆使用暴力,却想垄断这种权力,不允许普通人使用。如果不幸生活在书中的社会,能不能活下去,能不能安全,真是全靠运气。不给陌生人开门以及家里有点防盗措施,是必须的。

“What’s it going to be then, eh?“ 要不是有页底注释,这堆Nadsat能杀了我。PS后记说美国出版社 觉得最后一章太感性,出版之后删去;库布里克电影也没拍最后一章。只能说,美国人太没品了…….

They turned him into a real horrorshow clockwork orange, he then has no power of choices any longer. (被Nadsat glossary惊艳到了 头一次为了读懂一部小说被逼搞懂一种不正经的语言 情节紧凑语言冲击力强 很适合一口气读下来 但个人不是很喜欢有争议的最后一章)
