Korova Milk Bar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Korova Milk Bar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Korova Milk Bar (korova is Russian for "cow") appears in the novel and film A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess, twisting the milk bar into a less innocent place.

The bar serves milk laced with drugs. The protagonist and narrator Alex lists some of the (fictitious) ingredients one can request: vellocet (LSD), synthemesc (synthetic mescalines), drencrom (adrenochrome.) For another ingredient he uses the phrase (drink the milk) "with knives in it," as it "would sharpen you up".[1] By serving milk (instead of alcohol), the bar is able to serve intoxicating libations to minors. In the film, the bar has furniture in the shape of naked women and the milk that is served comes from their nipples. The furniture is based on the work of British sculptor Allen Jones.

[edit] Other uses

There was a bar in New York City's East Village named the Korova Milk Bar styled after the bar in the film.[2] The bar closed in October 2006 but served as a Mecca for the New York City goth, punk, industrial, metal, hardcore and fetish sub-cultures for many years.[3] In September 2007, the bar re-opened in White Plains, New York.[4]

There are currently Korova Milk Bars on Bourke Street in Melbourne, with an interior theme designed to emulate its fictional counterpart, and on Saint Laurent Boulevard in Montreal, Quebec.
