Описание Brave New World

Not so far into the future, the world has become a single supranational state, ruled by a council of World Controllers. Consumerism has replaced religion, science has eliminated illness and ageing;
the happiness of all is ensured by genetic engineering, brainwashing, recreational sex and tranquilizing drugs. But Bernard Marx feels alienated from a society in which '
everybody belings to everybody else'
and begins to show alarming signs of individualism. When he plucks a Shakespeare-reasing '
Savage'
from a South American reservation and brings him back to Lodnon, two incompatible views of the world come into conflict, with dramatic results.
First published in 1932, Huxley'
s bleak dystiouan novel explores the very real dangers of social and technological progress, questions the nature of freedom and uncovers the dark side of mankind'
s seemingly insationable appetite for amusement.
