The endings in the film and book are different.
In the book Alex is beaten up and left for dead after his release from prison and is rescued by the man he attacked earlier on in the novel. He attempts suicide and whilst unconscious, government psychologists reverse the Ludovicos technique he under went whilst in prison. For a time he reverts to his old ways of violence but at the end is thinking about settling down.
In the US edition, the last chapter was removed, against Burgess's wishes, because it was thought to be too sentimental.
It is a brilliant book but takes a fair intellect to understand and appreciate it.

I am sorry I can`t help you, I found both the book and the film so boring, that I didn`t get to the end of either. I very much doubt that many others did either. It was a lot of hype over rubbish literature.

i resent that question. read the book, it's really a great work, and so is the film, which doesn't happen often. but please, just read the book!

Rhett leaves Scarlett completely alone with a baby in Atlanta. She'll soon turn into a woman of ill-repute, you mark my words.
