Brave New World : A novel /
Aldous Huxley.
- London : Penguin, 1973.
- 201 p.
This is a fantasy of the future. Abandoning his mordant criticism of modern men and morals, the author switches to the future and shows us life as he conceives it may be some thousands of years hence. Huxley satirizes the idea of progress put forward by scientists and philosophers; and his world of test-tube babies and "feelies" uncomfortably closer now than it was when the book was first published.
