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

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.

读后感

《发条橙》或许不应该单独阅读,应该跟《麦田里的守望者》、《猜火车》、《在路上》放在一起来读,都是描述“垮掉的一代”的大作,孰优孰劣,各有定论。而结局几乎相似,无非是对背叛的背叛,对否定的否定,跨过对生活嘲讽和反抗的极端,又落回生活的五指山,就像夜间纵欲狂欢...

《发条橙》是一部很有哲理意义的小说,在情节结构上,人为安排的因素较多,故事的对称性颇受东方固果报应思想的影响,这当然加强了这个中篇小说的戏剧色彩。不过,作者的意图是要说明,小流氓们的所作所为--恶,是不好,但也不一定是最糟的情况;其理由是"善"里面包含了...

走出走进,这本书就显眼地摆在那。听说此书尺度之大,一直没敢读,因为曾经看过一部类似的电影《守望者》,在观影的几小时中,这种赤裸裸拆解人性黑暗面的故事一直带给我萎靡不振的精神状态。读此书时亦是如此,当作者十分连贯地讲述发生在同一个夜晚的几件丑事,一度使我怀疑...

was so troubled with the so-called nadsat

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。
