Brave New World pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
Aldous Huxley was born on 26th July 1894 near Godalming, Surrey. He began writing poetry and short stories in his early twenties, but it was his first novel, Crome Yellow (1921), which established his literary reputation. This was swiftly followed by Antic Hay (1923), Those Barren Leaves (1925) and Point Counter Point (1928) - bright, brilliant satires in which Huxley wittily but ruthlessly passed judgement on the shortcomings of contemporary society. For most of the 1920s Huxley lived in Italy and an account of his experiences there can be found in Along the Road (1925). The great novels of ideas, including his most famous work Brave New World (published in 1932 this warned against the dehumanising aspects of scientific and material 'progress') and the pacifist novel Eyeless in Gaza (1936) were accompanied by a series of wise and brilliant essays, collected in volume form under titles such as Music at Night (1931) and Ends and Means (1937). In 1937, at the height of his fame, Huxley left Europe to live in California, working for a time as a screenwriter in Hollywood. As the West braced itself for war, Huxley came increasingly to believe that the key to solving the world's problems lay in changing the individual through mystical enlightenment. The exploration of the inner life through mysticism and hallucinogenic drugs was to dominate his work for the rest of his life. His beliefs found expression in both fiction (Time Must Have a Stop,1944 and Island, 1962) and non-fiction (The Perennial Philosophy, 1945, Grey Eminence, 1941 and the famous account of his first mescalin experience, The Doors of Perception, 1954. Huxley died in California on 22nd November 1963.

Far in the future, the World Controllers have created the ideal society. Through clever use of genetic engineering, brainwashing and recreational sex and drugs all its members are happy consumers. Bernard Marx seems alone harbouring an ill-defined longing to break free. A visit to one of the few remaining Savage Reservations where the old, imperfect life still continues, may be the cure for his distress...
Huxley's ingenious fantasy of the future sheds a blazing light on the present and is considered to be his most enduring masterpiece.

评分看到对《1984》的评论，让我想起另一本书《美丽新世界》。对1984里描述的令人窒息的独裁场景我已不担心，因为从上个世纪末开始，我们这一代人已经开始翻过那沉重的一页，中国人正头也不回地掠过《1984》的阴影。这本书在二十年前对国人会有振聋发聩的作用，但在半个多世纪后的...
评分首先说，看这本书来自neil.postman的《娱乐至死》，后来才知道其与奥威尔的《1984》，扎米亚京的《我们》并称为反乌托邦三部曲，在postman看来《美丽新世界》和《1984》描绘的是两个相反的未来，而在读过此书后，我觉得这种相反反而只是表面上的。内在来看，他们描绘的都是又精...

或许比1984更加可能。
评分其实我看的是1961年版penguin modern classics那版的，但是豆瓣上找不到，也没有isbn编号，那就。。。
评分这年头，肚子里没点莎士比亚连其他小说都读不了了。
评分如果真有那样一个世界——没有疾病，没有痛苦，没有衰老，淡定面对死亡，生命早已被写好，每个人照着既定的线路没有抱怨没有遗憾地走完，这未尝不是好的选择。现实世界不缺乏美好却也充满了残酷，有得必有失，就看你如何权衡。
评分O have new world that has such people in it!!!! 启蒙书籍，但和第一次读时完全是两本书的感觉，how time flies.最后依旧虐惨了
