I cannot agree more with the choppiness and abruptness. Huxley uses very beautiful wording, but I do not think he is that great of a writer. The ideas are more important than the writing in this book, though.

this is a great review. You seem very bright, and it's great to see people take interest in classical literature aside from the computer, video games etc. I recently completed 1984 and am now begining Brave New World, so it is nice to have the opinion of someone else to compare my own throughout my reading. You should definately continue to make book reviews, becasue i think that it's important to begin these types of discussions, even online. Greaaat job :)

Great review, but I don't feel that Soma was considered bad in any way by the members of the society or the leaders, rather the government pushed it on them so as to control the population (by keeping them from thinking and thus realizing their lack of freedom). Also Linda didn't leave the new world on purpose,m she got lost, and couldn't return because of her pregnancy. Her addiction to Soma more than likely came about because the people of the new world thought that she was disgusting, ect.
