Marking the 75th anniversary of its original publication, Vintage Canada is proud to publish the first Canadian edition ever of the 1932 classic Brave New World with an original introduction by Margaret Atwood.

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 in feeling discontent. Harbouring an unnatural desire for solitude, and a perverse distaste for the pleasure of compulsory promiscuity, Bernard has 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.

Chilling...

December 17, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Just got around to reading this. The story is not fantastic, but the world that it is set in is absolutely chilling.

This should be mandatory reading (along with Re Visited) for all school kids, right beside 1984.

It would be interesting to see the Authors take on the world now. Many aspects of today's word are following the path that Mr. Huxley was so afraid of.

An excellent book to read.

November 3, 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book was bearable and enjoyable (for someone who doesn't read much). I tackled this book one chapter at a time and the chapters were fairly attainable and easy to endure. The story line gets you immersed into the world projected by the book and makes you want to read another chapter and then some to flex those intellectual muscles. I would most likely recommend this book to anyone who is looking to read a dystopian-like sci-fi novel.

Wow, what a great read!

June 23, 2018

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

This was a little heavy and technical at times, but it is uncanny how applicable this series of essays seems to be in today's (June 2018) political climate: Trump's great America with internment camps for illegal immigrant children, North Korea's dictatorship, Russia's control and alleged manipulation (honestly not well informed on what exactly happened with the annexing of more territory, is Putin really elected or also a dictator?). This book also expanded my understanding of some of my favourite books - Stephen King's The Stand and George R.R. Martin's Tuf Voyaging novellas. Definitely still relevant and I'm glad I read it.

A must-read today

Brave new world is fascinating in itself, but Brave new World revisited is shockingly timely. I found myself triple checking the publishing data because it could have been written in 2017

A "Must have" book

May 5, 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I already have this book and bought a copy for my grandson who is reading 1984 at school. It's a book I go back to re-read and I think it's a book that everyone should read, or have read and know what it's about. A chilling story, well written about what could happen and what is actually happening now. Should be in every library.

Interesting counter-concept to 1984

January 13, 2019

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I really liked everything about the book its so much different to everything ive ever read and id actually consider this quite a light read compared to 1984 although its a dystopian book the concepts employed are interestingly polar opposite.

The writing is not great. But the ideas are what make this book

The writing is not great. But the ideas are what make this book. Read this book if you want to be exposed to some interesting ideas about the effect of technology on a society not so far advanced from ours

This book was a revolting and exciting mixture of all the pleasures and pains of a possible future of the world. Quite the page turner, and had a satisfying ending...in a way.
