Aldous Huxley has a unique ability to show many characters in several situations and how they interact.
A societal polemic, illustrating the many complexities and fabrics that make up that human soul and ardent condition.
This book shows a philosophy of self-introspection as well as the ability to question authority, leading to his epochal epic, "Brave New World" in 1932.
Best moment:
