Originally published in 1932, this outstanding work of literature is more crucial and relevant today than ever before.
“One of the most prophetic dystopian works of the 20th century” —Wall Street Journal
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.

“British actor Michael York’s refined and dramatic reading captures both the tone and the spirit of Huxley’s masterpiece…An excellent performance of a classic and prescient twentieth-century novel.”
(AudioFile)“Easily one of the most significant novels of the twentieth century.”
(Wall Street Journal)“It is a frightening experience, indeed, to discover how much of his satirical prediction of a distant future became reality in so short a time.”
(New York Times Book Review)'Huxley’s most famous novel reminds us about the dangers of complacency.”
(O, The Oprah Magazine)“A classic science fiction work that continues to be a significant warning to our society today.”

The only issue I have with this version is that the ending's impact is spoiled, if not ruined by the run-of-the-mill copyright ammouncement. There isn't so much as a literal second to let the ending sink in.
Gorgeously read; the editing team's overzealous...
