Description
"Brave New World," by Aldous Huxley, is a satirical journey into a dystopian future where happiness comes in a pill, babies are grown in bottles, and the World State's motto is "Community, Identity, Stability." In this world, people don't read books; they get feelies, sort of like movies that you can touch and smell. The citizens are engineered for their roles, from the intellectually superior Alphas to the not-so-bright Epsilons. Enter our hero, Bernard Marx, who's a bit too short for an Alpha and has a serious case of 'not fitting in.' When he brings back a 'savage' from a reservation, things get a bit awkward, especially at parties. Huxley's masterpiece is a wry, clever poke at the idea of a 'perfect society, ' where everyone is blissfully ignorant, and the biggest dilemma is whether to take your soma before or after dinner. Get ready for a wild ride through a world that's as hilariously absurd as it is frighteningly possible.
