Hello, dear Hivers!
This is my first post on this community!

This is one of my favorite books mostly because of how I got to it and barely recognized how cool it was.
I came across this Anthony Burgess's "A Clockwork Orange" 2013 edition by the Penguin Books in that same year.

I didn't make a lot of smart and proud purchases when I was young but this one certainly was!
Has anyone read it?
