I know what you mean about a clockwork orange, i dont think ive ever finished it...i did find a little translation of all the weird slang he uses in it, on the internet...that was useful. This site seems pretty good too:

Ah thanks! Very useful looking site, i'll have to have that page nearby when reading. I had to re-read a line a few times on the first page and still didnt get what it meant! I thought maybe it'll be like Trainspotting and my head'll get used to it

Oh yeh! that reminded me of how hard i found trainspotting at times
Clockwork orange just seems more randomer, and you can't usually get a flow going because words keep on popping up!
Hope its helpful anyway

Yeah i didnt get a lot of the slang, though i found speaking in a scottish accent helps hehe.
Hmm i'll have to see how it goes, rented it out from the library so i've got to try and read it soon, cheers

thats great read it a few weeks ago, makes you want to travel. Our Man in Havana is probably a slightly better comedic novel, and Brighton Rock and The Quiet American are very good more serious novels.
