GREAT RECOMMENDATIONS....

A Clockwork Orange is what many of the psychologists working for a certain organization that shall remain nameless(BAN) predicted would be the final outcome of their strategies.

If you read We, there's a really spooky bit that compares individual consciousness to a sickness. Like how you only are aware of your eye if there's something in it, or you are only aware of your big toe or some other body part if you've injured it. It's pretty trippy. And incredibly well-written, almost poetic.
