A clockwork orange

This classic novel of our time, the book that spawned the unforgettable Stanley Kubrick film, has never before appeared in its entirety in America. The original U.S. edition— and the movie—lacked the ending Anthony Burgess intended for it. Now, at last, American readers can read the version the rest of the world has always known.

It's all here then. Alex and his three "droogs": Pete, Georgie and Dim ("Dim being really dim"). ... "Ultraviolence" set to the strains of Beethoven's Ninth.... The cruelty ...the capture ...the "treatment'!.. the strange and beautiful redemption. And the ending you never imagined. --back cover
