Brave New World — It is a perfect world. Or so they say. You have everything you could wish for; there is no violence; babies are made in laboratories; your daily dose of soma keeps depression away; you can watch “Feelie” to stimulate your senses. Verily, you live in a manmade heaven. So what ifthe World Controllers discourage critical thinking and individual action? It is for your own good. But Bernard Marx is not happy in this blissful ambience. Old imperfect life still exists in some Savage Reservations. Marx visits one of them. Can he find a cure for his distress? Huxley’s prophetic Brave New World needs no introduction. Published in 1932, it hasnot only awe-inspired the readers in the 20 th century but continues to do so even today when ourworld is fast becoming the dystopia Huxley had envisioned.
