# Title: A Clockwork Orange ## Author: Burgess, Anthony **Started Reading**: unknown **Finished Reading**: unknown [goodreads link](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/41817486-a-clockwork-orange) Love the Movie, love the book. For different reasons. I really liked the 21st chapter (Alex's Denouement). While it almost seemed like a "too-quick-wrap-up" of the events of the preceding chapters, it rings a bit true how young men one day just "grow up" and leave childish things behind. I also respect Kubrick's take in the movie that there can be no denouement. Some men are born evil and remain that way their entire lives. Tags: booknotes
