Description: *A Clockwork Orange* by Anthony Burgess is set in a dystopian future where teenage delinquency and violence are rampant. The story follows Alex, a 15-year-old boy who leads a gang and revels in committing crimes. After being arrested for murder, he undergoes an experimental rehabilitation treatment called the Ludovico Technique, which conditions him to associate violence with intense feelings of nausea. Upon release, Alex struggles to reintegrate into society, finding himself defenseless against the very violence he once perpetrated. The novel explores themes of free will, the nature of evil, and the ethical implications of state control over individual behavior. Its unique language, known as "Nadsat," combines Russian and English slang, adding to the book's distinctive style.
