A ClockWork Orange
By: Anthony Burgess
Main Characters
Protagonist
A vicious 15 year old leader of a gang of criminals who occasionally goes to school by day and then rapes and pillage by night. He finds that violence and music provide him with similar kinds of aesthetic pleasure. This person reminds me of Hyde because they both commit violence only for pleasure towards their ideals
Antagonist
(The State / Minister of the Interior)
Alex's parts in the book two and three are against the state and its solution to eliminate violent youth. Deep into the book the Minster of the interior stands for the state or its Governmental authority, he may be viewed as an antagonistic force.Protagonist problem

My impressions of the Protagonist Character
I don't like how he enjoys murder and pain as leisure, I feel that I use to be the same a I was going through a phase.
My impressions of the Antagonist Character
Characterization: In the End
I feel the state is too cruel because it forces a totalitarian system on the community which has people leaving them with sadness and guilt for all the crimes they have committed because they are punishing them.
