Alex is actually MUCH worse in the book, too, and it lacks the humor Kubrick added to the film. Well, except for one part:As you know, Mr. Deltoid says "yes?" after many of his statements. Later in the book, Alex does the same and realizes he must have picked it up from Mr. Deltoid. @ illeaturfamily

In the novel, you can't hear all the Beethoven that Alex talks about which is one edge the flim has over the book. But while the film is able to use music/scene matchups to it's advantage, the novel has stronger religious tones that question it's place in society as well.
