Brave New World
Written in the early 1930s, Brave New World is a dystopian blend of both science fiction and satire. Set six hundred years into the future, the novel offers a cynical look at a futuristic society and science’s effects on human life. Science and technology are paramount, and everyone is content. The novel moves readers to examine their world in terms of freedom of choice, the sanctity of human life, dependence upon a higher power, and the need for humane control of technology.
