Really enjoyed this prediction of the future. You can't help but compare this to [b:1984|5470|1984|George Orwell|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1348990566s/5470.jpg|153313] but they are very different. 1984 was a dark vision of the future, full of violence and down trodden people, Brave new world is pretty much the complete opposite no violence, everybody is happy and all things are great... in the words of the Lego Movie..." Everything is Awesome!"

That being so, this future is really sinister, in 1984 I felt I would have a chance to rebel, there were others who felt the same as you, but in brave new world you have no chance from when your first cell divides your future is being controlled and your future set. Ghastly stuff.

As for the writing itself, the book starts off with a tour of a facility and you are brought straight up-to-date with how the world is and how things are for everybody. After that the story kicks off and you follow the life of Bernard, somebody who is not normal... somebody like you and me... who doesn't want to fit in.

A brilliant novel that I really enjoyed to read, looking forward to reading more by Aldous Huxley.
