A CLOCKWORK ORANGE NINTH EDITION
Step into the world of a dark dystopia, where the lines between good and evil blur in the minds of the characters. This legendary book, made famous by Kubrick's film, is more than just a story – it's a journey into the depths of the human psyche, where violence and resocialization intertwine in a terrifying dance.
This unique edition is a real treat for literature lovers. Here you will find two translation versions, a version with Russianisms and a version with Anglicisms, as well as an afterword by Kingsley Amis, drawings and designs by the author. That's not all! Opinions and comments from outstanding English intellectuals, fragments of a play based on the novel and many other fascinating information await you.
- Two different translations of the same work
- A language created specifically for this novel
- The action takes place in an unspecified future
- Dystopia built on political and social criticism
- Over 50,000 copies sold in Poland
Anthony Burgess created a separate language for this novel, and Robert Stiller's translation is a bravura display of linguistic invention. It's something terrifyingly real: there is a chance that Poles will actually speak such a language! The action of the novel takes place in an unspecified future and in a not entirely specific city. Only a few realities indicate, perhaps unintentionally, that it is England or the United States and rather London than New York.
So, like science fiction in this specific and extremely important variety called dystopia: built on political and social criticism, a gloomy, catastrophism-prone type of utopia. Another in a series of impressive works created not only by George Orwell, but also by Zamiatin, Aldous Huxley, Ayn Rand, Karin Boye and many others. And now Anthony Burgess! Over 50,000 copies sold in Poland!
Vis-a-vis Etiuda publishing house presents this unique edition in hardcover, with 528 pages. The 225x142 mm format makes the book fit perfectly in your hand, and the careful edition guarantees reading pleasure. The year of publication 2024 guarantees the freshness and topicality of the content. This terrifying dystopia sometimes seems almost hysterical. It is not very clear: should we criticize its poster simplifications? Or admire their construction?
