Clockwork Orange 2

While working on the presentation, I realized that Alex's worlds punishment system isn't very strong and/or it doesn't work very well. If you look at our school's punishment system, it is so much stronger and works better than that of Alex's. Alex's punishment system is perceived to go: alternative school, probation officer, jail. I think that since they don't do anything to prevent violent behavior when the kids are young, it makes the chance of violent behavior when they are older much more likely.

Clockwork Orange

I think that the language used in the book Clockwork Orange, is very difficult to understand. When I first began reading the book, I couldn't even get past the first page without being completely confused. Once I found out there was a dictionary for the Nadsat, I went back and skimmed through the first few chapters that I didn't understand and got a better idea of the themes of the book.
