Aldous Huxley's 'Brave New World' is a seminal dystopian novel that projects a futuristic society where citizens are genetically engineered and conditioned for specific roles, ensuring societal stability and consumerism at the cost of individuality and freedom. Set in A.F. 632 (After Ford), the World State controls every aspect of human life through advanced reproductive technologies, psychological manipulation, and the ubiquitous use of 'soma', a happiness-inducing drug. The story follows Bernard Marx, an Alpha Plus who feels alienated, and John the Savage, a 'natural' born outside the system, as they confront the manufactured complacency and deep-seated repression of this seemingly utopian world. Huxley's work explores profound themes of identity, technology's impact on humanity, and the true meaning of happiness versus truth.
