"Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley Summary

not AI generated brave new world summary wtf 🤦‍♀️

Im an 80s kid who had to read real books. We read this and also Catcher in the Rye. Now both are banned from schools. Sad.

Did Brave New World predict present times? Or were the themes recreated in real life today inspired by the book?

This feels like one of those books that is supposed to be a critique of communism but ends up critiquing capitalism more than anything, thats just the impression i have so far as I'm reading it, though

Militarist monumental monotheist southeast bible thumpers and North Korea's goosestep marches of Orwellian communism or decadent Huxleyan polytheist west coast and South Korea's K Pop gyrations of Ziabatsu Chaebol corporate fast bucks.

Decadent snobby urban high school I commuted to from hick town suburbia and how my mother died in of a geriatric ward was similar to such a dystopia.

My mother said "You went to liberal schools......You let such a book ruin your mind".
