Brave New World
Huxley's dystopian novel depicts a future society that has achieved stability through genetic engineering, conditioning, and the pleasure drug soma. Unlike Orwell's 1984, control is maintained through pleasure rather than pain. The work explores themes of technology, happiness, freedom, and what it means to be human in a world that has eliminated suffering.
