The book is co-edited by Dr Matt Melia from Kingston University<\/a>, and Georgina Orgill, the archivist of Stanley Kubrick<\/a>. For those with an interest in the great brainwashing fable, in either literary or cinematic form, it’s a great read, from Matt and Georgina’s introduction, to the final essay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ponying the Slovos team<\/a> were honoured to be able to contribute to the volume, and eagerly grasped the opportunity to compare Burgess’s Nadsat to that which features in Stanley Kubrick’s script (and thereafter, the movie itself.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alas, as is so often the case with academic research these days, the purchase price is not so cheap. My suggestion is to ask a friendly academic librarian to consider purchasing it on your behalf. However, I can offer you a flavour of what we discovered, and subsequently wrote about in the volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

M’learned colleague Benet Vincent has written up a fascinating article over at the Ponying the Slovos blog<\/a>, explaining the differences between Burgess’s Nadsat and Kubrick’s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope you will read it, and perhaps also get the chance to look at the book, not to mention its gorgeous cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
