Aldous Huxley's Brave New World (Bloom's Guides) (2004) - Plot & Excerpts
I read this in high school, 1992 I believe, and I really, really liked it. I couldn't tell anyone, though, because it was high school and all the cool kids were mad that Mr. Whittaker was making us read it. "Ugh, it's soooo, like, loooong" they said. "this is sooo gay! Like, gag me" they said. "Soma, sooooma, it's like, that's all this book is about. How booooooring" they cried. "I totally agree!" I said while silently hating them.Has anyone ever told you "the world needs ditch-diggers too?" My dad used to say that. No body wants to be a ditch-digger. Not in this world. In the Brave New World, though, people are bred to be ditch-diggers. They are bred to want it. And as long as they are properly drugged, they'll keep wanting it. Read away.
