This book explores the way Anthony Burgess depicts narcissism and violence through the protagonist of his novel A Clockwork Orange and compares it to the adaptation by Stanley Kubrick. Using Freud´s personality theory, the character´s personality and actions, as they are mediated in the novel and the film, are analysed. Another aim of this book is to explore the way the philosophical/ethical question of free choice is negotiated in the two different medial representations of the protagonist´s story.
