Book Review of Brave New World

Brave New World is a short story, written by Aldous Huxley, an English writer, and philosopher. The novel explores a future society called "The Countries of the World," which focuses on science. In this society, emotions and personalities are limited when children are very young. The text mainly revolves around how a man within the traditional system has a more open idea than they do. This novel explores the deeper emotion between each character instead of a sexual relationship, just like the book says.

The setting for Brave New World is London 600 years from now. Human life is fully industrialized. Most human beings were created according to society's strict caste system. It ensures that the natural processes of birth and death represent the horrors of this world. The protagonist of this book is Bernard, who was born an Alpha-Plus (or high-caste) psychologist.  He is now disconnected from the world and unsatisfied with the large amounts of drugs produced every year (soma- which will make people happy) and sex needs of the people. Bernard always works with a woman called Lenina Crowne, who enjoys being a Beta. She is a vaccination worker with beliefs and values that are in line with a citizen of the World State. He and Lenina were heading to a reservation in New Mexico for a holiday, far from the world controlled by London. Before he left, Bernard was told by his boss, the DHC, that they had threatened to banish him because they were angry about his socially untouchable feelings. But in the end, he went to the reservation for investigation reasons. They met a woman from London-Linda, John is her son. He is the son of DHC. The only person born naturally by his mother in Brave New World, represents a unique person in the novel, with an identity and family relationship, unlike any other character. Although he was the son of two upper castes in London, he grew up in squalid conditions on a savage reservation. They want DHC to be embarrassed by other people when they know that Savage John is his son. After they returned, the DHC escaped from London because of humiliation. DHC is the Director, known as the Director of Hatcheries and Conditioning, holds a position of significant power in the State's operations

When John came to London, he was bored, confused, and ultimately disgusted by the ways of London, having been brought up in the traditional ways of the reservation. He has always been very interested in Shakespeare. He was terrified of the endless sex in London. Later, Lenina really liked John and wanted to have sex with him. But John was very angry with Lenina for the way she forced sex. Linda also died in a hospital in London from her illness. All this indirectly led to John's dislike of London. Finally, in the hospital, John starts a riot, resulting in the Delta people not getting soma, John and Bernard, and Helmholtz arrested. Finally, Mond's trial is to exile Bernard and Helmholtz to a desert island.  John decided to live in seclusion in a lighthouse outside the city. The citizens of the World State soon caught up with him, and many came to the lighthouse. After the carnival, people rushed to the lighthouse and asked John to whip himself. Lenina approached John with outstretched arms. John's reaction was to wave his whip and scream, "Kill it! Kill it!" The next morning, he woke up, knew he'd had a sex party, and hanged himself.

Bernard remains the central character of the novel until John is introduced, and in the novel, ironically, it succeeds in showing how a little man can change his fate and, along with the loss of all wishes, his own lovesickness, jealousy, and his rivalry all have an impact on his life. The chief change in his character was due to the change in his relationship with Lenina. And once he finds John, he uses John to gain popularity, to engage in all the aspects of the world, the country, and the society that he's criticized before, like social . This character. It is very common in society. The author uses Bernard to describe some small people who want to change their fate. After obtaining a new fate, they return to greed, the original character they hate most.

This novel criticizes many things respectively. First, it warns the government to control technology and dangerous drugs because, in the future, if the World does not give birth naturally, life will be very shallow and “happy.” However, the science and technology behind it are not the exploration of truth but may threaten the control of the World. The World's concern with happiness and stability means that it uses the results of scientific research because it helps control technology, but does not support the development of technology leading to further control of human society, and through a character that reflects the personalities of Bernard-Lenina and Foster, many of their ideas are detached from reality. They do what they want in the text, without checking whether it makes sense based on basic thinking. It's all a critique of the negative effects of drug use, and it's full of characters who do everything they can to avoid facing the truth about their situation. Soma covers up present reality and replaces it with the illusion of happiness, and is thus a tool for promoting social stability. But even Shakespeare can be used to avoid facing the truth.  As John's insistence on looking at Lenina through the lens of Shakespeare's world demonstrates, the state deliberately prioritizes happiness at the expense of truth: he thinks people are better off with happiness than the truth.
