Fede:
In “A Clockwork Orange”, one of the leit motifs of the story, is the sadistic violence that overcomes Alex’s character, throughout this quotes we are going to analyse the obsession towards violent acts that this misfit is trapped.
Alex starts evoking his obsession from the beginning of the book when he and his “droogs” attack an innocent old men when going out of a library,“…and that made the old veck start moaning a lot then, then out comes the blood, my brothers, real beautiful. So all we did then was to pull his outer platties off, stripping him down to his vest and long underpants (very starry; Dim smecked his head off near), and then Pete kicks him lovely in his pot.”, the character sees violence as un art, he says the blood is “real beautiful” when going out of the body of the victim and also that Dim “very starry” nearly chops the victims head off. This is already showing something rare in Alex’s personality towards violence, nobody that is sane would have this approaches for this acts. He uses positive connotation like “lovely” to describe how Pete kicks the man. Also, Burges makes use of comas to transmit the pacific and contemplating attitude of Alex when he sees the violence that is being imposed over the victim, “then out comes the blood, my brothers, real beautiful” this shows the quirky obsession that Alex has to this ghoulish situations making pauses to describe this to the reader as if we shared the feeling with him.
Later in the story, Alex and his “droogs” are drawn by the obsessive violence when they have an encounter with the other childish violent rival gang, Billyboy and hi boys. Here he shows his obsession by the way he assaults Billyboy. “And, my brothers, it was real satisfaction to me to waltz--left two three, right two three--and carve left cheeky and right cheeky, so that like two curtains of blood seemed to pour out at the same time, one on either side of his fat filthy oily snout in the winter starlight. Down this blood
