Thank you - The site DOES check out - it is Russian - and reading ONLINE only, is free. To download (couldn't get that section to work) - there is probably a cost involved. Looks to be a brand new site - with bugs still in it.

I will ALWAYS have problems with even the idea of making any online payment to sites that are connected with any of the old Soviet republics - The Russian Mob is so pervasive - and nothing from that area (or Africa) is going to be at all secure, imo.

Will be getting past the 'Nadsat' - and the dictionary will help. The online version may or may not have the dictionary that is/was supposed to be in the book.

Second and Third readings of those first two para's got easier.

Yep. That's it. Welcome to the world of Nadsat.

Burgess was a linguist, ya know.

This should help.

While the first few pages are kind of thick with Nadsat, it gets easier and especially so when Alex isn't narrating.
