Brave New World

Description: This is the first UK edition, 2d impression. Huxley had a modest reputation before this book was written; this is the work that brings one literary immortality. An unusually detailed and well written Wikipedia entry gives the history of the work, originally intended as a satire of H.G. Wells but then moving to something bolder and more Savage, ha ha [the moniker of a main character]. It was recognized as a vital work the moment reviewers saw it and remains a favorite of those who loathe the totalitarian impulse. Brave New World remains a startling read, well deserving of the fear that leads the troglodytes to try and ban it from libraries and school reading lists. Fear not, it will prevail.
