This volume is part of a new series of novels, plays and stories at GCSE/Key Stage 4 level, designed to meet the needs of the National Curriculum syllabus. Each text includes an introduction, pre-reading activities, notes and coursework activities. Also provided is a section on the process of writing, often compiled by the author. Into the neatly programmed "Brave New World" of test-tube babies and drug-controlled happiness, misfit Bernard Marx brings the innocent Savage. Huxley's vision of the future is also a chilling comment on the present.
Meh. Yeah. Another dystopian novel. I thought the beginning was a bit melodramatic. The whole book was pessimistic though. I can appreciate the warning, and it's a good satire. (guess I've read all the most famous dystopian novels now, the giver, fahrenheit 451 and 1984). Overall, I'm very glad I read it, but I'm not so sure I would read it again.
