Title: A Cautionary Tale
Product review: The Wanting Seed is a cautionary tale along the lines of 1984 or The Handmaid's Tale. The novelist's objective is to get the reader to suspend disbelief, but I'm not sure Burgess completely achieves that here. His description of a British authoritarian society changing is a little too fantastic, but his characters do redeem the book. I enjoyed this, but unlike another reviewer, I think A Clockwork Orange is a better effort, though that novel does require the reader work a little harder than here.
