5.0 out of 5 stars Splendid, 3 Jan 1999

By A Customer

Though not reading much of Burgess's literature, I rather enjoyed this book. I found myself entailed in the simplicity of a love story which the book is. As complex as the meaning of the book, I focused on the simplicity. The story of ill-fated lovers in a world full of struggle. The over population problem is very plausible which creates a sense of dread. The future at hand in the book could happen. Every time I read it I find something which I overlooked before. The plot moves smoothly enough to want to finish it. Over all it's a delightful book.
