“Korova Milk Bar”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The Korova Milk Bar (from Russian корова, korova, "cow") appears in the novel and film A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess. It is a twisted version of a milk bar which serves milk laced with drugs ("moloko plus"). The protagonist and narrator Alex lists some of the fictitious ingredients one can request: vellocet (Russian for amphetamines), synthemesc (synthetic mescaline), drencrom (adrenochrome). For the ingredient drencrom, he uses the phrase (drink the milk) "with knives in it," as it "would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence".^[1] By serving milk instead of alcohol, the bar is able to serve minors. In the film, the bar has furniture in the shape of naked women^[2] and the milk is served from their nipples.
