A Clockwork Orange is one of the best books I've ever read, I can't see how anyone can be dissapointed in it.
Unless those people are the certain few who only read horrors, fantasies, and science fiction titles.*

Interesting thing to say about a Science Fiction title.

It's not science fiction.
It's actually far from it, where in god's name did you get that assumption?

The concept fits into the very nature of Science Fiction. It is undoubtedly sci fi. It disturbs me that you'd find otherwise. Know the genres. [/b][/quote]
It's not science fiction.
THIS IS SCIENCE FICTION!
A literary or cinematic genre in which fantasy, typically based on speculative scientific discoveries or developments, environmental changes, space travel, or life on other planets, forms part of the plot or background.
There is no fantasy in Clockwork Orange, there are no major changes to society and/or enviromental/scientific advancements.
It's fiction, so much fiction in fact, that the side of the original edition and the new edition both cleary printed upon them read "Fiction". To add onto that, the writer even stated that it was Fiction.
It was Moralistic Fiction, not Science Fiction.
Know YOUR genres before you contradict me.
