Brave New World By Alduos Huxley :: Free Essay Writer
Brave New World By Alduos HuxleyBrave New World by Aldous Huxley is a book full of core and purpose. Even though it was written in 1932 and wasnt completely accepted at the time, today people accept it as a work of written genius.The book starts off as telling of mans destiny in the future. It is so far into the future that it isnt even on the time scale of BC or AD, it is AF. There be no parents, no relatives, and no family history. Children are test tube babies in which they are grown and born in a building and have sex there and learn until they are old enough to leave and live their own lives. The babies are categorized as Alphas, of imports, Gammas, Deltas and Epsilons. Alphas and Betas are high class while Gammas Deltas and Epsilons are low class and work at factory like places. The people work to make the babies and to make the society a happy place to live in. The only culture that lives on is English dead languages are everything else like French and Polish. The only so ciety that still lived on was the Indians.Huxley seemed to make his novel a little debauched. The people in the town took a drug called soma and had sex casually. There were even meetings where a group of people would get together, build soma, say rhymes like orgy-porgy and have an orgy. For the time period this book was written, casual sex was not something accepted by the majority of people. This is one reason wherefore the book wasnt liked.The way Huxley started with the characters Bernard and Lenina made it seem like something big was going to happen to them at the end. Bernard was kind of a rebel from his society by not wanting to take soma and have sex with a different girl every night. And Lenina was the girl of Bernards fancy, who he wanted to be with, but Lenina agreed with the consumption of soma and having sex all the time. When Bernard and Lenina went to New Mexico for a holiday, they met some Indians or savages. But for some odd reason they met dickens English or civ ilized people there. A woman was left there by a man who was now Englands Director, and she got pregnant with his baby, John, who had a tormented childhood from the Indian children for his race and his mother who still lived with the civilized idea of casual sex, which the Indians did not.
