Great Music, it said, and Great Poetry would like quieten Modern Youth down and make Modern Youth more Civilized. Civilized my syphilised yarbles.
"A brilliant novel.. a savage satire on the distortions of the single and collective minds." -- New York Times
"Looks like a nasty little shocker, but is really that rare thing in English letters: a philosophical novel." -- Time
"I do not know of any other writer who has done as much with language as Mr. Burgess has done here — the fact that this is also a very funny book may pass unnoticed." -- William S. Burroughs
"A terrifying and marvelous book." -- Roald Dahl
