[QUOTE="SaintsFan_Webby, post: 103511"] We are reading that for English this year, and this being the first time i've read it, it is confusing, if well written. Not sure if I really like it, will probably enjoy better when I become accustomed to the little created langauge Alex uses in the book, finally clicked what "Twenty to One" meant, thought it just meant a fight... but I think it's a bit more sinister. [/b][/quote] The first time I read it I was initially confused by the language. Once you get used to it though you naturally start to associate the words with images, the same way you would do learning a foreign language. And a lot of the stuff is pretty sinister. Especially stuff like Alex's appreciation of Beethoven contrast with his enjoyment of brutal sex and violence. Very creepy. [/QUOTE]
