Samuel reviewed Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Review of 'Brave New World' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
I read this one many years ago, when I was on my twenties, many people compare it with Orwell's 1984. I think the books does not accomplish the same thing: in one society, the one from this book, the purpose is to eradicate completely the purpose of human reproduction trough sex in order to achieve the "perfect being" and on the other, it's about mind control. By which I remember, there was not such a thing in the Brave New World's society, but you had castes just as in 1984, but there appears to be only one superior caste: the rulers. I think that 1984 have more strength, at least if left stronger mind marks than this one.
Anyway, one thay I will reread this one.
