Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley
  • Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
  • They’re also the natural next step from mainstream scifi/dystopian Classics™️ like Brave New World (which actually just got a pretty dope new television adaptation)
  • If you liked 1984, then Brave New World is a classic companion piece!
  • Second *Brave New World*. I personally prefer it to *Nineteen Eighty-Four*.

Cons

  • Try Brave New World and then ask yourselves whether Huxley or Orwell got it right.
  • “The Classics” - 1984, Brave New World (although I really didn’t enjoy it), Oryx and Crake, Fahrenheit 451 etc.
  • Huxley’s *Brave New World* and *Brave New World Revisited* were interesting, though a bit less engaging.

Everyone knows Brave New World

Yes, if you read it though, read Aldus Huxley’a Brave New World with it. It creates a really interesting contrast in opinion about what will destroy a free society.
