Published in 1932, Brave New World is Aldous Huxley's most outstanding masterpiece and one of the most famous dystopian literary classics of the 20th century. It is known as the "dystopian" trilogy together with Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four and Zamyatin's We, and has a profound influence on the literary and ideological circles at home and abroad. This is an allegorical work that shows the future of human society in Huxley's eyes: through the most effective scientific and psychological engineering, human beings have been genetically and genetically designed to be members of various levels of society, completely reduced to docile machines, individuality and freedom have been strangled, and literature and art are on the verge of destruction. Following the allegorical masterpiece "Brave New World", Huxley published the treatise "Brave New World Revisited" in 1958. In this eloquent work, the author used his rich knowledge of sociology and anthropology to compare modern society with all aspects of the allegorical picture he imagined in "Brave New World", such as overpopulation, propaganda and brainwashing, and chemical persuasion, and believed that his pessimistic predictions in his early years were becoming a reality. This book includes all of Huxley's two most classic masterpieces.
