Banned Books Club

October 6th 6:30 pm







During Banned Books Week this year we will be discussing the
8th most banned and challenged book of 2025, External link opens in new tab or windowA Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess.

In Burgess’s influential nightmare vision of the future, where the criminals take over after dark, the story is
told by the central character, Alex, a teen who talks in a fantastically inventive slang that evocatively renders
his and his friends’ intense reaction against their society. Dazzling and transgressive, A Clockwork Orange
is a frightening fable about good and evil and the meaning of human freedom.
