For those of you that like Brave New Word … this was Huxleys last novel … worth a read …

Love this book. Need to reread it soon 🤙
What is it about, without revealing any plot twists or revealations?
Sure!
While BNW deals with dystopia, The Island deals with utopia.
Many of the themes Huxley touches upon in his other works (the state, western man, eastern philosophies, population, substance use etc) are discussed again but from a different angle.
While Pala is an Utopian society (dealing with the baggage that comes with it), it’s neighbors are either underdeveloped or overdeveloped.
It was Huxleys last vision before he passed … it’s somewhat slower than BNW, but the topics it touches upon, we’re still debating …
