Product Description
A mighty novel of soulless, streamlined Eden, a shocking look at a frightening tomorrow.Amazon.com Review
“Community, Identity, Stability” is the motto of Aldous Huxley’s utopian World State. Here everyone consumes daily grams of soma, to fight depression, babies are born in laboratories, and the most well loved form of entertainment is a “Feelie,” a movie that stimulates the senses of sight, hearing, and touch. Though there is no violence and everyone is provided for, Bernard Marx feels something is missing and senses his relationship with a young women has the potential to be much more than the confines of their being allow. Huxley foreshadowed many of the practices and gadgets we take for granted today–let’s hope the unproductiveness and absence of individuality he predicted aren’t yet to come.

huxley’s courageous new world is a tale about the future world and how messed up it will be. ‘civilization’, as it is called in the novel, is all about sacrificing art, like, and beauty for artificial happiness.
the plot was slow to pick up from the start [and, really, it never did pick up] and very confusing. it was also a very dirty book and a dark portrayal of the future world. in the novel, all humans are made in embryo factories, babies are hypnotized and agreed electric shocks, children are taught erotic play, and everyone is constantly high on a drug named soma. the book’s plain descriptions of sex, drugs, and violence really make you marvel what kind of man huxley was.
aside from my personal prejudices, the tale itself was pretty lame in that NOTHING HAPPENED. what huxley provided us with was a 300-page description of the “future”.
not much of a satire and not very witty either.

While cultural pundits try to convince you that some literature is better than additional literature, the truth is that all art is relative to individial tastes. Thus, it doesn’t make any sense to reflect that a novel like this one is really any better than say, Michael Crichton or Stephen King. Aesthetic standards can’t be grounded.
Thus, don’t listen to anyone who tries to distinguish between “serious” works of literature like this one and allegedly “lesser” novels. The honor is entirely illusory, because no novels are “better” than any others, and the concept of a “fantastic novel” is an intellectual hoax.
I prefer books with red covers. You may say the color of the book’s take in has nothing to do with it being excellent, but who are you to dictate what criteria I use to evaluate books. This book does NOT have a red take in, so in the trash it goes.

this book is horrible… never read it. first its dull and a small yucky but i despise how Huxley really thought it was similar to the present. the message in the book is people can’t change. Its probably one of my least favorite books. dont waste your money.

I despise this book. It is very poorly written, the tale is nearly laughable (“feelies” “orgy-porgy” WTF), the language is dry, etc. etc. i wouldn’t even give it 1 star…
