(Independently published March 8, 2019)
Huxleys second novel was written in 1923, the story takes place in London, and depicts the aimless or self-absorbed cultural elites in the turbulent times after the end of World War I. The book follows the lives of a set of unusual characters in bohemian, artistic and intellectual circles looking for happiness while everything is going out of control in a ridiculous and comic way. It reinforced Huxley's reputation as an iconoclast. It was condemned for its immorality because of its open debate of sex. The novel was burned in Cairo.
