Brave New World

Brave New World is by Aldous Huxley. The classic science fiction dystopian novel that everyone should read. To create a utopian society people are genetically bred, assigned certain tasks and created to fulfill only those tasks, conditioned to be consumers, and reliant on soma for mood control. The world is ruled by a powerful oligarchy and everyone else serves their needs. But "life will not be denied" and human nature is not that easy to stamp out. What happens to those who refuse to abide by societies' rules? A Reader's Corner Highly Recommended Read!

Ratings: 11th grade - 10 out of 10 - AC (mature thematic content).
