Great video. BnW is one of my fav dystopian novels and I think Huxley so clearly gets people and how and what we might become and the power of consumerism and our wilful ignorance and our drift toward laziness and contentment
Excited to get to this one. 1984 changed me a lot when I was 17 for the better I hope) and I’m excited to get to it’s more nuanced cousin, this is the push I needed.
This has been a story I have come back to over and over again since my teenage years. I’ve come to the realization that we live in a mixture of Brave New World and 1984. Also I like to say centrifugal bumble puppy.
Yeah I agree it's a mixture of the two which is kinda funny considering Huxley wrote a letter to Orwell basically saying his book was more believable than 1984.
