Maybe im dumb but what the fuck was this book.

I legitimately didnt understand every second word and finished the book not understanding why this book is such a big deal. Giving it 3 stars is being generous on my end, since im giving it the benefit of the doubt since again, im probably just dumb (yes post modern literature blah blah commentary on society blah blah sue me i like to enjoy the books i read)

A brutal violent little catcher in the rye of a novel. Half the fun of this book was deciphering and immersing yourself in the world and dialect of young Alex and the other half was the juvenile, Tarantino-esque violence. Is it wrong to call this novel fun? I enjoyed reading it nonetheless...

nadsat-keel on väga huvitav, ehk tuleviku noorte inglise keel, kus iga "lihtsam" sõna on venekeelne, kõnepruuk oli ka huvitav, mulle meeldis nt lause "my dad was like humble mumble chumble„
