Brave New World

Aldous Huxley

2.3 1 rating · 1 review on Book Nook

Originally published in 1932, this outstanding work of literature is more crucial and relevant today than ever before. Cloning, feel-good drugs, antiaging programs, and total social control through politics, programming, and media--has Aldous Huxley accurately predicted our future? With a storyteller's genius, he weaves these ethical controversies in a compelling narrative that dawns in the year 632 AF (After Ford, the deity). When Lenina and Bernard visit a savage reservation, we experience how Utopia can destroy humanity.A powerful work of speculative fiction that has enthralled and terrified readers for generations, Brave New World is both a warning to be heeded and thought-provoking yet satisfying entertainment.

★★☆☆☆

I was super excited to finally get my hands on this book; however, I feel mildly disappointed in it. I think the purpose and meaning of this book is important, and I loved the character depth/complexities—-I especially loved how the ending wasn’t what you’d hope for it to be as the reader. That said, the book felt like a chore to read at some points; I’m glad I read it, but I had to force myself to do it😅
