I almost put A Clockwork Orange on my read list, but I didn't really read it as such - I saw (& somewhat enjoyed) the movie, & before I was old enough to see the movie someone I knew had a book with stills & captions from the movie...I know, doesn't count as reading the book. But about 20 years ago, an article in Rolling Stone revealed that the UK version of the book contained a final chapter or epilogue that was not included in the US version, and RS then printed the missing chapter. I did read that, & it gives a whole different spin to the story that I knew from the movie.
